See + also `uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant`. + +uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant:: + When `uploadpack.hideRefs` is in effect, allow `upload-pack` + to accept a fetch request that asks for an object at the tip + of a hidden ref (by default, such a request is rejected). + See also `uploadpack.hideRefs`. Even if this is false, a client + may be able to steal objects via the techniques described in the + "SECURITY" section of the linkgit:gitnamespaces[7] man page; it's + best to keep private data in a separate repository. + +uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant:: + Allow `upload-pack` to accept a fetch request that asks for an + object that is reachable from any ref tip. However, note that + calculating object reachability is computationally expensive. + Defaults to `false`. Even if this is false, a client may be able + to steal objects via the techniques described in the "SECURITY" + section of the linkgit:gitnamespaces[7] man page; it's best to + keep private data in a separate repository. + +uploadpack.allowAnySHA1InWant:: + Allow `upload-pack` to accept a fetch request that asks for any + object at all. + Defaults to `false`. + +uploadpack.keepAlive:: + When `upload-pack` has started `pack-objects`, there may be a + quiet period while `pack-objects` prepares the pack. Normally + it would output progress information, but if `--quiet` was used + for the fetch, `pack-objects` will output nothing at all until + the pack data begins. Some clients and networks may consider + the server to be hung and give up. Setting this option instructs + `upload-pack` to send an empty keepalive packet every + `uploadpack.keepAlive` seconds. Setting this option to 0 + disables keepalive packets entirely. The default is 5 seconds. + +uploadpack.packObjectsHook:: + If this option is set, when `upload-pack` would run + `git pack-objects` to create a packfile for a client, it will + run this shell command instead. The `pack-objects` command and + arguments it _would_ have run (including the `git pack-objects` + at the beginning) are appended to the shell command. The stdin + and stdout of the hook are treated as if `pack-objects` itself + was run. I.e., `upload-pack` will feed input intended for + `pack-objects` to the hook, and expects a completed packfile on + stdout. ++ +Note that this configuration variable is ignored if it is seen in the +repository-level config (this is a safety measure against fetching from +untrusted repositories). + +uploadpack.allowFilter:: + If this option is set, `upload-pack` will support partial + clone and partial fetch object filtering. + +uploadpack.allowRefInWant:: + If this option is set, `upload-pack` will support the `ref-in-want` + feature of the protocol version 2 `fetch` command. This feature + is intended for the benefit of load-balanced servers which may + not have the same view of what OIDs their refs point to due to + replication delay. |
