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

---
- ambiguousFetchRefspec::
- Advice shown when fetch refspec for multiple remotes map to
- the same remote-tracking branch namespace and causes branch
- tracking set-up to fail.
- fetchShowForcedUpdates::
- Advice shown when linkgit:git-fetch[1] takes a long time
- to calculate forced updates after ref updates, or to warn
- that the check is disabled.
- pushUpdateRejected::
- Set this variable to 'false' if you want to disable
- 'pushNonFFCurrent', 'pushNonFFMatching', 'pushAlreadyExists',
- 'pushFetchFirst', 'pushNeedsForce', and 'pushRefNeedsUpdate'
- simultaneously.
- pushNonFFCurrent::
- Advice shown when linkgit:git-push[1] fails due to a
- non-fast-forward update to the current branch.
- pushNonFFMatching::
- Advice shown when you ran linkgit:git-push[1] and pushed
- 'matching refs' explicitly (i.e. you used ':', or
- specified a refspec that isn't your current branch) and
- it resulted in a non-fast-forward error.
- pushAlreadyExists::
- Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that
- does not qualify for fast-forwarding (e.g., a tag.)
- pushFetchFirst::
- Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that
- tries to overwrite a remote ref that points at an
- object we do not have.
- pushNeedsForce::
- Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that
- tries to overwrite a remote ref that points at an
- object that is not a commit-ish, or make the remote
- ref point at an object that is not a commit-ish.
- pushUnqualifiedRefname::
- Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] gives up trying to
- guess based on the source and destination refs what
- remote ref namespace the source belongs in, but where
- we can still suggest that the user push to either
- refs/heads/* or refs/tags/* based on the type of the
- source object.
- pushRefNeedsUpdate::
- Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects a forced update of
- a branch when its remote-tracking ref has updates that we
- do not have locally.
- skippedCherryPicks::
- Shown when linkgit:git-rebase[1] skips a commit that has already
- been cherry-picked onto the upstream branch.
- statusAheadBehind::
- Shown when linkgit:git-status[1] computes the ahead/behind
- counts for a local ref compared to its remote tracking ref,
- and that calculation takes longer than expected. Will not
- appear if `status.aheadBehind` is false or the option
- `--no-ahead-behind` is given.
- statusHints::
- Show directions on how to proceed from the current
- state in the output of linkgit:git-status[1], in
- the template shown when writing commit messages in
- linkgit:git-commit[1], and in the help message shown
- by linkgit:git-switch[1] or
- linkgit:git-checkout[1] when switching branch.
- statusUoption::
- Advise to consider using the `-u` option to linkgit:git-status[1]
- when the command takes more than 2 seconds to enumerate untracked
- files.
- commitBeforeMerge::
- Advice shown when linkgit:git-merge[1] refuses to
- merge to avoid overwriting local changes.
- resetNoRefresh::
- Advice to consider using the `--no-refresh` option to
- linkgit:git-reset[1] when the command takes more than 2 seconds
- to refresh the index after reset.
- resolveConflict::
- Advice shown by various commands when conflicts
- prevent the operation from being performed.
- sequencerInUse::
- Advice shown when a sequencer command is already in progress.
- implicitIdentity::
- Advice on how to set your identity configuration when
- your information is guessed from the system username and
- domain name.
- detachedHead::
- Advice shown when you used
- linkgit:git-switch[1] or linkgit:git-checkout[1]
- to move to the detach HEAD state, to instruct how to
- create a local branch after the fact.
- suggestDetachingHead::
- Advice shown when linkgit:git-switch[1] refuses to detach HEAD
- without the explicit `--detach` option.
- checkoutAmbiguousRemoteBranchName::
- Advice shown when the argument to
- linkgit:git-checkout[1] and linkgit:git-switch[1]
- ambiguously resolves to a
- remote tracking branch on more than one remote in
- situations where an unambiguous argument would have
- otherwise caused a remote-tracking branch to be
- checked out. See the `checkout.defaultRemote`
- configuration variable for how to set a given remote
- to used by default in some situations where this
- advice would be printed.
- amWorkDir::
- Advice that shows the location of the patch file when
- linkgit:git-am[1] fails to apply it.
- rmHints::
- In case of failure in the output of linkgit:git-rm[1],
- show directions on how to proceed from the current state.
- addEmbeddedRepo::
- Advice on what to do when you've accidentally added one
- git repo inside of another.
- ignoredHook::
- Advice shown if a hook is ignored because the hook is not
- set as executable.
- waitingForEditor::
- Print a message to the terminal whenever Git is waiting for
- editor input from the user.
- nestedTag::
- Advice shown if a user attempts to recursively tag a tag object.
- submoduleAlternateErrorStrategyDie::
- Advice shown when a submodule.alternateErrorStrategy option
- configured to "die" causes a fatal error.
- submodulesNotUpdated::
- Advice shown when a user runs a submodule command that fails
- because `git submodule update --init` was not run.
- addIgnoredFile::
- Advice shown if a user attempts to add an ignored file to
- the index.
- addEmptyPathspec::
- Advice shown if a user runs the add command without providing
- the pathspec parameter.
- updateSparsePath::
- Advice shown when either linkgit:git-add[1] or linkgit:git-rm[1]
- is asked to update index entries outside the current sparse
- checkout.
- diverging::
- Advice shown when a fast-forward is not possible.
- worktreeAddOrphan::
- Advice shown when a user tries to create a worktree from an
- invalid reference, to instruct how to create a new orphan
- branch instead.
