1 advice.*::
2 These variables control various optional help messages designed to
3 aid new users. All 'advice.*' variables default to 'true', and you
4 can tell Git that you do not need help by setting these to 'false':

7 fetchShowForcedUpdates::
8 Advice shown when linkgit:git-fetch[1] takes a long time
9 to calculate forced updates after ref updates, or to warn
10 that the check is disabled.
11 pushUpdateRejected::
12 Set this variable to 'false' if you want to disable
13 'pushNonFFCurrent', 'pushNonFFMatching', 'pushAlreadyExists',
14 'pushFetchFirst', 'pushNeedsForce', and 'pushRefNeedsUpdate'
15 simultaneously.
16 pushNonFFCurrent::
17 Advice shown when linkgit:git-push[1] fails due to a
18 non-fast-forward update to the current branch.
19 pushNonFFMatching::
20 Advice shown when you ran linkgit:git-push[1] and pushed
21 'matching refs' explicitly (i.e. you used ':', or
22 specified a refspec that isn't your current branch) and
23 it resulted in a non-fast-forward error.
24 pushAlreadyExists::
25 Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that
26 does not qualify for fast-forwarding (e.g., a tag.)
27 pushFetchFirst::
28 Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that
29 tries to overwrite a remote ref that points at an
30 object we do not have.
31 pushNeedsForce::
32 Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that
33 tries to overwrite a remote ref that points at an
34 object that is not a commit-ish, or make the remote
35 ref point at an object that is not a commit-ish.
36 pushUnqualifiedRefname::
37 Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] gives up trying to
38 guess based on the source and destination refs what
39 remote ref namespace the source belongs in, but where
40 we can still suggest that the user push to either
41 refs/heads/* or refs/tags/* based on the type of the
42 source object.
43 pushRefNeedsUpdate::
44 Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects a forced update of
45 a branch when its remote-tracking ref has updates that we
46 do not have locally.
47 skippedCherryPicks::
48 Shown when linkgit:git-rebase[1] skips a commit that has already
49 been cherry-picked onto the upstream branch.
50 statusAheadBehind::
51 Shown when linkgit:git-status[1] computes the ahead/behind
52 counts for a local ref compared to its remote tracking ref,
53 and that calculation takes longer than expected. Will not
54 appear if `status.aheadBehind` is false or the option
55 `--no-ahead-behind` is given.
56 statusHints::
57 Show directions on how to proceed from the current
58 state in the output of linkgit:git-status[1], in
59 the template shown when writing commit messages in
60 linkgit:git-commit[1], and in the help message shown
61 by linkgit:git-switch[1] or
62 linkgit:git-checkout[1] when switching branch.
63 statusUoption::
64 Advise to consider using the `-u` option to linkgit:git-status[1]
65 when the command takes more than 2 seconds to enumerate untracked
66 files.
67 commitBeforeMerge::
68 Advice shown when linkgit:git-merge[1] refuses to
69 merge to avoid overwriting local changes.
70 resetQuiet::
71 Advice to consider using the `--quiet` option to linkgit:git-reset[1]
72 when the command takes more than 2 seconds to enumerate unstaged
73 changes after reset.
74 resolveConflict::
75 Advice shown by various commands when conflicts
76 prevent the operation from being performed.
77 sequencerInUse::
78 Advice shown when a sequencer command is already in progress.
79 implicitIdentity::
80 Advice on how to set your identity configuration when
81 your information is guessed from the system username and
82 domain name.
83 detachedHead::
84 Advice shown when you used
85 linkgit:git-switch[1] or linkgit:git-checkout[1]
86 to move to the detach HEAD state, to instruct how to
87 create a local branch after the fact.
88 suggestDetachingHead::
89 Advice shown when linkgit:git-switch[1] refuses to detach HEAD
90 without the explicit `--detach` option.
91 checkoutAmbiguousRemoteBranchName::
92 Advice shown when the argument to
93 linkgit:git-checkout[1] and linkgit:git-switch[1]
94 ambiguously resolves to a
95 remote tracking branch on more than one remote in
96 situations where an unambiguous argument would have
97 otherwise caused a remote-tracking branch to be
98 checked out. See the `checkout.defaultRemote`
99 configuration variable for how to set a given remote
100 to used by default in some situations where this
101 advice would be printed.
102 amWorkDir::
103 Advice that shows the location of the patch file when
104 linkgit:git-am[1] fails to apply it.
105 rmHints::
106 In case of failure in the output of linkgit:git-rm[1],
107 show directions on how to proceed from the current state.
108 addEmbeddedRepo::
109 Advice on what to do when you've accidentally added one
110 git repo inside of another.
111 ignoredHook::
112 Advice shown if a hook is ignored because the hook is not
113 set as executable.
114 waitingForEditor::
115 Print a message to the terminal whenever Git is waiting for
116 editor input from the user.
117 nestedTag::
118 Advice shown if a user attempts to recursively tag a tag object.
119 submoduleAlternateErrorStrategyDie::
120 Advice shown when a submodule.alternateErrorStrategy option
121 configured to "die" causes a fatal error.
122 submodulesNotUpdated::
123 Advice shown when a user runs a submodule command that fails
124 because `git submodule update --init` was not run.
125 addIgnoredFile::
126 Advice shown if a user attempts to add an ignored file to
127 the index.
128 addEmptyPathspec::
129 Advice shown if a user runs the add command without providing
130 the pathspec parameter.
131 updateSparsePath::
132 Advice shown when either linkgit:git-add[1] or linkgit:git-rm[1]
133 is asked to update index entries outside the current sparse
134 checkout.
