From 48d5014dd42cc4a4465162c9807eaa253715e105 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2016 18:34:07 -0700 Subject: config.abbrev: document the new default that auto-scales We somehow forgot to update the "default is 7" in the documentation. Also give a way to explicitly ask the auto-scaling by setting config.abbrev to "auto".
