-pack.window::
381
- The size of the window used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] when no
382

383
-
384
-pack.depth::
385
- The maximum delta depth used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] when no
386

387
- Maximum value is 4095.

389
-pack.windowMemory::
390
- The maximum size of memory that is consumed by each thread
391
- in linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] for pack window memory when
392
- no limit is given on the command line. The value can be
393
- suffixed with "k", "m", or "g". When left unconfigured (or
394
- set explicitly to 0), there will be no limit.
395
-
396
-pack.compression::
397
- An integer -1..9, indicating the compression level for objects
398
- in a pack file. -1 is the zlib default. 0 means no
399
- compression, and 1..9 are various speed/size tradeoffs, 9 being
400
- slowest. If not set, defaults to core.compression. If that is
401
- not set, defaults to -1, the zlib default, which is "a default
402
- compromise between speed and compression (currently equivalent
403
- to level 6)."
404
-+
405
-Note that changing the compression level will not automatically recompress
406
-all existing objects. You can force recompression by passing the -F option
407
-to linkgit:git-repack[1].
408
-
409
-pack.island::
410
- An extended regular expression configuring a set of delta
411
- islands. See "DELTA ISLANDS" in linkgit:git-pack-objects[1]
412
- for details.
413
-
414
-pack.islandCore::
415
- Specify an island name which gets to have its objects be
416
- packed first. This creates a kind of pseudo-pack at the front
417
- of one pack, so that the objects from the specified island are
418
- hopefully faster to copy into any pack that should be served
419
- to a user requesting these objects. In practice this means
420
- that the island specified should likely correspond to what is
421
- the most commonly cloned in the repo. See also "DELTA ISLANDS"
422
- in linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
423
-
424
-pack.deltaCacheSize::
425
- The maximum memory in bytes used for caching deltas in
426
- linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] before writing them out to a pack.
427
- This cache is used to speed up the writing object phase by not
428
- having to recompute the final delta result once the best match
429
- for all objects is found. Repacking large repositories on machines
430
- which are tight with memory might be badly impacted by this though,
431
- especially if this cache pushes the system into swapping.
432
- A value of 0 means no limit. The smallest size of 1 byte may be
433
- used to virtually disable this cache. Defaults to 256 MiB.
434
-
435
-pack.deltaCacheLimit::
436
- The maximum size of a delta, that is cached in
437
- linkgit:git-pack-objects[1]. This cache is used to speed up the
438
- writing object phase by not having to recompute the final delta
439
- result once the best match for all objects is found.
440
- Defaults to 1000. Maximum value is 65535.
441
-
442
-pack.threads::
443
- Specifies the number of threads to spawn when searching for best
444
- delta matches. This requires that linkgit:git-pack-objects[1]
445
- be compiled with pthreads otherwise this option is ignored with a
446
- warning. This is meant to reduce packing time on multiprocessor
447
- machines. The required amount of memory for the delta search window
448
- is however multiplied by the number of threads.
449
- Specifying 0 will cause Git to auto-detect the number of CPU's
450
- and set the number of threads accordingly.
451
-
452
-pack.indexVersion::
453
- Specify the default pack index version. Valid values are 1 for
454
- legacy pack index used by Git versions prior to 1.5.2, and 2 for
455
- the new pack index with capabilities for packs larger than 4 GB
456
- as well as proper protection against the repacking of corrupted
457
- packs. Version 2 is the default. Note that version 2 is enforced
458
- and this config option ignored whenever the corresponding pack is
459
- larger than 2 GB.
460
-+
461
-If you have an old Git that does not understand the version 2 `*.idx` file,
462
-cloning or fetching over a non native protocol (e.g. "http")
463
-that will copy both `*.pack` file and corresponding `*.idx` file from the
464
-other side may give you a repository that cannot be accessed with your
465
-older version of Git. If the `*.pack` file is smaller than 2 GB, however,
466
-you can use linkgit:git-index-pack[1] on the *.pack file to regenerate
467
-the `*.idx` file.
468
-
469
-pack.packSizeLimit::
470
- The maximum size of a pack. This setting only affects
471
- packing to a file when repacking, i.e. the git:// protocol
472
- is unaffected. It can be overridden by the `--max-pack-size`
473
- option of linkgit:git-repack[1]. Reaching this limit results
474
- in the creation of multiple packfiles; which in turn prevents
475
- bitmaps from being created.
476
- The minimum size allowed is limited to 1 MiB.
477
- The default is unlimited.
478
- Common unit suffixes of 'k', 'm', or 'g' are
479
- supported.
480
-
481
-pack.useBitmaps::
482
- When true, git will use pack bitmaps (if available) when packing
483
- to stdout (e.g., during the server side of a fetch). Defaults to
484
- true. You should not generally need to turn this off unless
485
- you are debugging pack bitmaps.
486
-
487
-pack.writeBitmaps (deprecated)::
488
- This is a deprecated synonym for `repack.writeBitmaps`.
489
-
490
-pack.writeBitmapHashCache::
491
- When true, git will include a "hash cache" section in the bitmap
492
- index (if one is written). This cache can be used to feed git's
493
- delta heuristics, potentially leading to better deltas between
494
- bitmapped and non-bitmapped objects (e.g., when serving a fetch
495
- between an older, bitmapped pack and objects that have been
496
- pushed since the last gc). The downside is that it consumes 4
497
- bytes per object of disk space, and that JGit's bitmap
498
- implementation does not understand it, causing it to complain if
499
- Git and JGit are used on the same repository. Defaults to false.
