+<p>

+        These config entries specify Git-tracked directories that are

+        considered safe even if they are owned by someone other than the

+        current user. By default, Git will refuse to even parse a Git

+        config of a repository owned by someone else, let alone run its

+        hooks, and this config setting allows users to specify exceptions,

+        e.g. for intentionally shared repositories (see the <code>--shared</code>

+        option in <a href="git-init.html">git-init(1)</a>).

+</p>

+<div class="paragraph"><p>This is a multi-valued setting, i.e. you can add more than one directory

+via <code>git config --add</code>. To reset the list of safe directories (e.g. to

+override any such directories specified in the system config), add a

+<code>safe.directory</code> entry with an empty value.</p></div>

+<div class="paragraph"><p>This config setting is only respected when specified in a system or global

+config, not when it is specified in a repository config or via the command

+line option <code>-c safe.directory=&lt;path&gt;</code>.</p></div>

+<div class="paragraph"><p>The value of this setting is interpolated, i.e. <code>~/&lt;path&gt;</code> expands to a

+path relative to the home directory and <code>%(prefix)/&lt;path&gt;</code> expands to a

+path relative to Git&#8217;s (runtime) prefix.</p></div>
