maintenance.auto::
This boolean config option controls whether some commands run
`git maintenance run --auto` after doing their normal work. Defaults
to true.
maintenance.autoDetach::
Many Git commands trigger automatic maintenance after they have
written data into the repository. This boolean config option
controls whether this automatic maintenance shall happen in the
foreground or whether the maintenance process shall detach and
continue to run in the background.
+
If unset, the value of `gc.autoDetach` is used as a fallback. Defaults
to true if both are unset, meaning that the maintenance process will
detach.
maintenance.strategy::
This string config option provides a way to specify one of a few
recommended schedules for background maintenance. This only affects
which tasks are run during `git maintenance run --schedule=X`
commands, provided no `--task=<task>` arguments are provided.
Further, if a `maintenance.<task>.schedule` config value is set,
then that value is used instead of the one provided by
`maintenance.strategy`. The possible strategy strings are:
+
* `none`: This default setting implies no tasks are run at any schedule.
* `incremental`: This setting optimizes for performing small maintenance
activities that do not delete any data. This does not schedule the `gc`
task, but runs the `prefetch` and `commit-graph` tasks hourly, the
`loose-objects` and `incremental-repack` tasks daily, and the `pack-refs`
task weekly.
maintenance.<task>.enabled::
This boolean config option controls whether the maintenance task
with name `<task>` is run when no `--task` option is specified to
`git maintenance run`. These config values are ignored if a
`--task` option exists. By default, only `maintenance.gc.enabled`
is true.
maintenance.<task>.schedule::
This config option controls whether or not the given `<task>` runs
during a `git maintenance run --schedule=<frequency>` command. The
value must be one of "hourly", "daily", or "weekly".
maintenance.commit-graph.auto::
This integer config option controls how often the `commit-graph` task
should be run as part of `git maintenance run --auto`. If zero, then
the `commit-graph` task will not run with the `--auto` option. A
negative value will force the task to run every time. Otherwise, a
positive value implies the command should run when the number of
reachable commits that are not in the commit-graph file is at least
the value of `maintenance.commit-graph.auto`. The default value is
100.
maintenance.loose-objects.auto::
This integer config option controls how often the `loose-objects` task
should be run as part of `git maintenance run --auto`. If zero, then
the `loose-objects` task will not run with the `--auto` option. A
negative value will force the task to run every time. Otherwise, a
positive value implies the command should run when the number of
loose objects is at least the value of `maintenance.loose-objects.auto`.
The default value is 100.
maintenance.incremental-repack.auto::
This integer config option controls how often the `incremental-repack`
task should be run as part of `git maintenance run --auto`. If zero,
then the `incremental-repack` task will not run with the `--auto`
option. A negative value will force the task to run every time.
Otherwise, a positive value implies the command should run when the
number of pack-files not in the multi-pack-index is at least the value
of `maintenance.incremental-repack.auto`. The default value is 10.
