extensions.*::
Unless otherwise stated, is an error to specify an extension if
`core.repositoryFormatVersion` is not `1`. See
linkgit:gitrepository-layout[5].

compatObjectFormat::
Specify a compatibility hash algorithm to use. The acceptable values
are `sha1` and `sha256`. The value specified must be different from the
value of `extensions.objectFormat`. This allows client level
interoperability between git repositories whose objectFormat matches
this compatObjectFormat. In particular when fully implemented the
pushes and pulls from a repository in whose objectFormat matches
compatObjectFormat. As well as being able to use oids encoded in
compatObjectFormat in addition to oids encoded with objectFormat to
locally specify objects.
noop::
This extension does not change git's behavior at all. It is useful only
for testing format-1 compatibility.
+
For historical reasons, this extension is respected regardless of the
`core.repositoryFormatVersion` setting.
noop-v1::
This extension does not change git's behavior at all. It is useful only
for testing format-1 compatibility.
objectFormat::
Specify the hash algorithm to use. The acceptable values are `sha1` and
`sha256`. If not specified, `sha1` is assumed.
+
Note that this setting should only be set by linkgit:git-init[1] or
linkgit:git-clone[1]. Trying to change it after initialization will not
work and will produce hard-to-diagnose issues.
partialClone::
When enabled, indicates that the repo was created with a partial clone
(or later performed a partial fetch) and that the remote may have
omitted sending certain unwanted objects. Such a remote is called a
"promisor remote" and it promises that all such omitted objects can
be fetched from it in the future.
+
The value of this key is the name of the promisor remote.
+
For historical reasons, this extension is respected regardless of the
`core.repositoryFormatVersion` setting.
preciousObjects::
If enabled, indicates that objects in the repository MUST NOT be deleted
(e.g., by `git-prune` or `git repack -d`).
