Turning off the pager in Git for the stash command only and Disable all paging in Git doesn't answer this question, because I sometimes want use the pager, but not by default. I just want Git to use a pager when I add the -p option.
One partial solution, I think, that can do in some pieces, for example, for the branch command:
git config --global pager.branch false
For me, it is the best solution, but -p will not work:
git config --global core.pager ""
As I use a terminal with a scroll bar, it seems for me that it will be more productive to limit the entries of output than to put in a pager. For me, instead of write in the terminal (I use Konsole), for here I can copy, paste and search. If the output goes to a pager, the output will be lost forever when we leave the pager.
Now I just need to find out, how I limit the results to 100 or 200.
I mean, git log by default be git log -100.
In conclusion, Git doesn't offer an option to do this, so this question falls in Disable all paging in Git.
Git doesn't offer an option to do this, so you have a couple of options:
core.pager to cat and then create an alias that you use that calls git -c core.pager=less (or whatever you want).git a shell function in your shell that does something like this:git () {
local pager=""
for arg in "$@"
do
[ "$arg" = "-p" ] && pager="-c core.pager=less"
done
command git $pager "$@"
}
