1`notes.mergeStrategy`::
2 Which merge strategy to choose by default when resolving notes
3 conflicts. Must be one of `manual`, `ours`, `theirs`, `union`, or
4 `cat_sort_uniq`. Defaults to `manual`. See the "NOTES MERGE STRATEGIES"
5 section of linkgit:git-notes[1] for more information on each strategy.
6+
7This setting can be overridden by passing the `--strategy` option to
8linkgit:git-notes[1].
9
10`notes.<name>.mergeStrategy`::
11 Which merge strategy to choose when doing a notes merge into
12 `refs/notes/<name>`. This overrides the more general
13 `notes.mergeStrategy`. See the "NOTES MERGE STRATEGIES" section in
14 linkgit:git-notes[1] for more information on the available strategies.
15
16`notes.displayRef`::
17 Which ref (or refs, if a glob or specified more than once), in
18 addition to the default set by `core.notesRef` or
19 `GIT_NOTES_REF`, to read notes from when showing commit
20 messages with the `git log` family of commands.
21+
22This setting can be overridden with the `GIT_NOTES_DISPLAY_REF`
23environment variable, which must be a colon separated list of refs or
24globs.
25+
26A warning will be issued for refs that do not exist,
27but a glob that does not match any refs is silently ignored.
28+
29This setting can be disabled by the `--no-notes` option to the linkgit:git-log[1]
30family of commands, or by the `--notes=<ref>` option accepted by
31those commands.
32+
33The effective value of `core.notesRef` (possibly overridden by
34`GIT_NOTES_REF`) is also implicitly added to the list of refs to be
35displayed.
36
37`notes.rewrite.<command>`::
38 When rewriting commits with _<command>_ (currently `amend` or
39 `rebase`), if this variable is `false`, git will not copy
40 notes from the original to the rewritten commit. Defaults to
41 `true`. See also `notes.rewriteRef` below.
42+
43This setting can be overridden with the `GIT_NOTES_REWRITE_REF`
44environment variable, which must be a colon separated list of refs or
45globs.
46
47`notes.rewriteMode`::
48 When copying notes during a rewrite (see the
49 `notes.rewrite.<command>` option), determines what to do if
50 the target commit already has a note. Must be one of
51 `overwrite`, `concatenate`, `cat_sort_uniq`, or `ignore`.
52 Defaults to `concatenate`.
53+
54This setting can be overridden with the `GIT_NOTES_REWRITE_MODE`
55environment variable.
56
57`notes.rewriteRef`::
58 When copying notes during a rewrite, specifies the (fully
59 qualified) ref whose notes should be copied. May be a glob,
60 in which case notes in all matching refs will be copied. You
61 may also specify this configuration several times.
62+
63Does not have a default value; you must configure this variable to
64enable note rewriting. Set it to `refs/notes/commits` to enable
65rewriting for the default commit notes.
66+
67Can be overridden with the `GIT_NOTES_REWRITE_REF` environment variable.
68See `notes.rewrite.<command>` above for a further description of its format.
