Thanks for the suggestion! If the "repository." doesn't make sense as a top-
level category, then maybe "core.repositorySize" would work?
A thought I had overnight that may broaden our options would be to think of
this as a tolerance for experimental features. Maybe "core.adoptionRing" with
options for "slow" and "fast", where "slow" takes things that have been cooking
a long while (index.version=4, core.commitGraph=gc.writeCommitGraph=1) and the
"fast" option gets all of those values plus the more experimental options
(status.aheadBehind=false, fetch.showForcedUpdates=false).
Alternate names with this slow/fast idea could be:
* core.experimentTolerance={none,low,high}
* core.autoConfig={none,some,all}
Hopefully these options can trigger some creativity to decide on a good
name that an experienced Git user could understand.
Thanks,
-Stolee
