-The `GIT_TR2` variables can take many values. Any value available to
-the `GIT_TRACE` variables is also available to `GIT_TR2`. The `GIT_TR2`
-variables can also specify a Unix Domain Socket. See
-link:technical/api-trace2.html[Trace2 documentation] for full details.
+If this variable is set to "1", "2" or "true" (comparison
+is case insensitive), trace messages will be printed to
+stderr.
++
+If the variable is set to an integer value greater than 2
+and lower than 10 (strictly) then Git will interpret this
+value as an open file descriptor and will try to write the
+trace messages into this file descriptor.
++
+Alternatively, if the variable is set to an absolute path
+(starting with a '/' character), Git will interpret this
+as a file path and will try to append the trace messages
+to it.  If the path already exists and is a directory, the
+trace messages will be written to files (one per process)
+in that directory, named according to the last component
+of the SID and an optional counter (to avoid filename
+collisions).
++
+In addition, if the variable is set to
+`af_unix:[<socket_type>:]<absolute-pathname>`, Git will try
+to open the path as a Unix Domain Socket.  The socket type
+can be either `stream` or `dgram`.
++
+Unsetting the variable, or setting it to empty, "0" or
+"false" (case insensitive) disables trace messages.
