(by default: @code{git}). This is necessary when using Gitolite with software
like cgit or gitweb.
+@item @code{unsafe-pattern} (default: @code{#f})
+An optional Perl regular expression for catching unsafe configurations in
+the configuration file. See
+@uref{https://gitolite.com/gitolite/git-config.html#compensating-for-unsafe_patt,
+Gitolite's documentation} for more information.
+
+When the value is not @code{#f}, it should be a string containing a Perl
+regular expression, such as @samp{"[`~#\$\&()|;<>]"}, which is the default
+value used by gitolite. It rejects any special character in configuration
+that might be interpreted by a shell, which is useful when sharing the
+administration burden with other people that do not otherwise have shell
+access on the server.

@item @code{git-config-keys} (default: @code{""})
Gitolite allows you to set git config values using the @samp{config}
keyword. This setting allows control over the config keys to accept.
