The git-config(1) man page entries for "fetch.fsckObjects" and
"receive.fsckObjects" both end with the lines
Defaults to false. If not set, the value of transfer.fsckObjects is
used instead.
These two sentences contradict each other: if the variable is not set,
the first sentence says it is interpreted as false, the second sentence
says the value of transfer.fsckObjects is used instead.
Both sentences can't be true at the same time when transfer.fsckObjects = true.
Suggested rephrasing:
If not set, the value of transfer.fsckObjects is used
instead, which defaults to false.
