If set to true, .git/shallow can be updated when new refs
require new shallow roots. Otherwise those refs are rejected.
+refs.ignorecase::
+ If true, this option prevents the creation of ref names
+ that differ in case only. For example, if a branch Foo exists,
+ `git checkout -b foo` would fail. This is the case
+ across ref hierarchies, so `git tag foo` would also fail.
+ This option is useful on filesystems that are not case
+ sensitive.

+The default is false, except linkgit:git-clone[1] or linkgit:git-init[1]
+will probe and set refs.ignorecase true if appropriate when the repository
+is created. refs.ignorecase will also be true if core.ignorecase is true.
