branch.<name>.remote::
When in branch <name>, it tells `git fetch` which remote to fetch.
If this option is not given, `git fetch` defaults to remote "origin".

When true, rebase the branch <name> on top of the fetched branch,
- instead of merging the default branch from the default remote.

+gitcvs.usecrlfattr
+ If true, the server will look up the `crlf` attribute for
+ files to determine the '-k' modes to use. If `crlf` is set,
+ the '-k' mode will be left blank, so cvs clients will
+ treat it as text. If `crlf` is explicitly unset, the file
+ will be set with '-kb' mode, which supresses any newline munging

gitcvs.allbinary::
- If true, all files are sent to the client in mode '-kb'. This
- causes the client to treat all files as binary files which suppresses
- any newline munging it otherwise might do. A work-around for the
- fact that there is no way yet to set single files to mode '-kb'.
+ This is used if 'gitcvs.usecrlfattr' does not resolve
+ the correct '-kb' mode to use. If true, all
+ unresolved files are sent to the client in
+ mode '-kb'. This causes the client to treat them
+ as binary files, which suppresses any newline munging it
+ otherwise might do. Alternatively, if it is set to "guess",
+ then the contents of the file are examined to decide if
+ it is binary, similar to 'core.autocrlf'.

-merge.summary::
- Whether to include summaries of merged commits in newly created
- merge commit messages. False by default.

-merge.tool::
- Controls which merge resolution program is used by
- linkgit:git-mergetool[1]. Valid built-in values are: "kdiff3",
- "tkdiff", "meld", "xxdiff", "emerge", "vimdiff", "gvimdiff", and
- "opendiff". Any other value is treated is custom merge tool
- and there must be a corresponing mergetool.<tool>.cmd option.
-
-merge.verbosity::
- Controls the amount of output shown by the recursive merge
- strategy. Level 0 outputs nothing except a final error
- message if conflicts were detected. Level 1 outputs only
- conflicts, 2 outputs conflicts and file changes. Level 5 and
- above outputs debugging information. The default is level 2.
- Can be overridden by 'GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY' environment variable.

-merge.<driver>.name::
- Defines a human readable name for a custom low-level

-merge.<driver>.driver::
- Defines the command that implements a custom low-level
- merge driver. See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details.

- Names a low-level merge driver to be used when
- performing an internal merge between common ancestors.
