Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/56497 ## Philip Oakley, 2021-09-13 21:23 Subject: [PATCH] doc: config, tell readers of `git help --config` Message-ID: <20210913212305.1832-1-philipoakley@iee.email> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20210913212305.1832-1-philipoakley%40iee.email ``` The `git help` command gained the ability to list config variables in 3ac68a93fd (help: add --config to list all available config, 2018-05-26) but failed to tell readers of the config documenation itself. Provide that cross reference. Signed-off-by: Philip Oakley --- I noticed this omission while reviewing Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason's [PATCH v2 2/5] help: correct usage & behavior of "git help --guides" . My initial comment is in <2493437c-01c5-ddcc-6a61-666f87e70f20@iee.email> and follow up, that is was out of scope to Ævar's series, in <8c72d383-4ae2-b96c-6886-7c36153d8991@iee.email>. This patch is independednt of the ab/help-config-vars series. --- Documentation/git-config.txt | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/Documentation/git-config.txt b/Documentation/git-config.txt index 2dc4bae6da..992225f612 100644 --- a/Documentation/git-config.txt +++ b/Documentation/git-config.txt @@ -71,6 +71,9 @@ codes are: On success, the command returns the exit code 0. +A list of all available configuration variables can be obtained using the +`git help --config` command. + [[OPTIONS]] OPTIONS ------- -- 2.33.0.windows.2 ```
