i18n.commitEncoding
Character encoding the commit messages are stored in; git itself does not care per se, but this information is necessary e.g. when importing commits from emails or in the gitk graphical history browser (and possibly at other places in the future or in other porcelains). See e.g. \fBgit\-mailinfo\fR(1). Defaults to \fIutf\-8\fR.

log.showroot
If true, the initial commit will be shown as a big creation event. This is equivalent to a diff against an empty tree. Tools like \fBgit\-log\fR(1) or \fBgit\-whatchanged\fR(1), which normally hide the root commit will now show it. True by default.
