1 index.recordEndOfIndexEntries::
2 Specifies whether the index file should include an "End Of Index
3 Entry" section. This reduces index load time on multiprocessor
4 machines but produces a message "ignoring EOIE extension" when
5 reading the index using Git versions before 2.20. Defaults to
6 'true' if index.threads has been explicitly enabled, 'false'
9 index.recordOffsetTable::
10 Specifies whether the index file should include an "Index Entry
11 Offset Table" section. This reduces index load time on
12 multiprocessor machines but produces a message "ignoring IEOT
13 extension" when reading the index using Git versions before 2.20.
14 Defaults to 'true' if index.threads has been explicitly enabled,
18 When enabled, write the index using sparse-directory entries. This
19 has no effect unless `core.sparseCheckout` and
20 `core.sparseCheckoutCone` are both enabled. Defaults to 'false'.
23 Specifies the number of threads to spawn when loading the index.
24 This is meant to reduce index load time on multiprocessor machines.
25 Specifying 0 or 'true' will cause Git to auto-detect the number of
26 CPU's and set the number of threads accordingly. Specifying 1 or
27 'false' will disable multithreading. Defaults to 'true'.
30 Specify the version with which new index files should be
31 initialized. This does not affect existing repositories.
32 If `feature.manyFiles` is enabled, then the default is 4.
35 When enabled, do not compute the trailing hash for the index file.
36 This accelerates Git commands that manipulate the index, such as
37 `git add`, `git commit`, or `git status`. Instead of storing the
38 checksum, write a trailing set of bytes with value zero, indicating
39 that the computation was skipped.
41 If you enable `index.skipHash`, then Git clients older than 2.13.0 will
42 refuse to parse the index and Git clients older than 2.40.0 will report an
43 error during `git fsck`.
