NAME

bup-config - bup configuration options

DESCRIPTION

bup specific options may be set in the relevant git config (git-config(1)), and bup also respects some existing git options.

OPTIONS

bup.split-trees
When this boolean option is set to true, bup will attempt to split trees (directories) when writing to the repository during, for example bup save ..., bup gc .., etc. This can notably decrease the size of the new data added to the repository when large directories have changed (e.g. large active Maildirs). See “Handling large directories” in the DESIGN in the bup source for additional information.
git.packSizeLimit
Respected when writing pack files (e.g. via bup save ...).
