will automatically behave
as if the `--mirror` option was given on the command line.
remote.<name>.skipDefaultUpdate::
A deprecated synonym to `remote.<name>.skipFetchAll` (if
both are set in the configuration files with different
values, the value of the last occurrence will be used).
remote.<name>.skipFetchAll::
If true, this remote will be skipped when updating
using linkgit:git-fetch[1], the `update` subcommand of
linkgit:git-remote[1], and ignored by the prefetch task
of `git maintenance`.
remote.<name>.receivepack::
The default program to execute on the remote side when pushing. See
option --receive-pack of linkgit:git-push[1].
remote.<name>.uploadpack::
The default program to execute on the remote side when fetching. See
option --upload-pack of linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1].
remote.<name>.tagOpt::
Setting this value to --no-tags disables automatic tag following when
fetching from remote <name>. Setting it to --tags will fetch every
tag from remote <name>, even if they are not reachable from remote
branch heads. Passing these flags directly to linkgit:git-fetch[1] can
override this setting. See options --tags and --no-tags of
linkgit:git-fetch[1].
remote.<name>.vcs::
Setting this to a value <vcs> will cause Git to interact with
the remote with the git-remote-<vcs> helper.
remote.<name>.prune::
When set to true, fetching from this remote by default will also
remove any remote-tracking references that no longer exist on the
remote (as if the `--prune` option was given on the command line).
Overrides `fetch.prune` settings, if any.
remote.<name>.pruneTags::
When set to true, fetching from this remote by default will also
remove any local tags that no longer exist on the remote if pruning
is activated in general via `remote.<name>.prune`, `fetch.prune` or
`--prune`. Overrides `fetch.pruneTags` settings, if any.
+
See also `remote.<name>.prune` and the PRUNING section of
linkgit:git-fetch[1].
remote.<name>.promisor::
When set to true, this remote will be used to fetch promisor
objects.
remote.<name>.partialclonefilter::
The filter that will be applied when fetching from this promisor remote.
Changing or clearing this value will only affect fetches for new commits.
To fetch associated objects for commits already present in the local object
database, use the `--refetch` option of linkgit:git-fetch[1].
remote.<name>.serverOption::
The default set of server options used when fetching from this remote.
These server options can be overridden by the `--server-option=` command
line arguments.
+
This is a multi-valued variable, and an empty value can be used in a higher
priority configuration file (e.g. `.git/config` in a repository) to clear
the values inherited from a lower priority configuration files (e.g.
`$HOME/.gitconfig`).
remote.<name>.followRemoteHEAD::
How linkgit:git-fetch[1] should handle updates to `remotes/<name>/HEAD`
when fetching using the configured refspecs of a remote.
The default value is "create", which will create `remotes/<name>/HEAD`
if it exists on the remote, but not locally; this will not touch an
already existing local reference. Setting it to "warn" will print
a message if the remote has a different value than the local one;
in case there is no local reference, it behaves like "create".
A variant on "warn" is "warn-if-not-$branch", which behaves like
"warn", but if `HEAD` on the remote is `$branch` it will be silent.
Setting it to "always" will silently update `remotes/<name>/HEAD` to
the value on the remote. Finally, setting it to "never" will never
change or create the local reference.
