+# Strict checking of overlay definitions
+#
+# The nocheck option is a bit confusing, for historical reasons.
+# Hopefully this description eases the double negation trouble:
+#
+# nocheck : yes
+# - Accepts complete overlay entries without warnings
+# - Lists overlays of type foo (say Git) even with no foo installed
+#
+# nocheck : no
+# - Checks overlay entries for missing description or contact
+# information and issue warnings as needed
+# - Hides overlays of type foo (say Git) if foo not not installed
+#
+nocheck : yes
+
+#-----------------------------------------------------------
+# Umask settings
+#
+# layman should usually work with a umask of 0022. You should
+# only change this setting if you are absolutely certain that
+# you know what you are doing.
+#
+#umask : 0022
+
+#-----------------------------------------------------------
+# News reporting settings
+#
+# This is for when layman is adding/syncing overlays.
+# It is required for GLEP 42.
+# Currently there are 3 possible values:
+# portage, pkgcore, custom
+#
+# portage: uses portage to report news only from overlay(s) in
+# versions >=2.2.0_alpha72 or >=2.1.10.32
+# or all repositories (including gentoo) for older portage versions.
+# pkgcore: does not yet support glep 42, no news is reported
+# custom: requires that you provide a suitable python function
+# to 'custom_news_func' using the api's config.set_option()
+# or define the python package to import it from in custom_news_pkg
+
+news_reporter: portage
+
+#-----------------------------------------------------------
+# News reporting custom function setting
+#
+# the pkg name that contains the layman_news_function()
+# for it to import and use. It must be found in PYTHONPATH
+
+#custom_news_pkg :
+
+#-----------------------------------------------------------
+# Command overrides
+#
+# You can have commands point to either a binary at a different
+# location, e.g.
+#
+# /home/you/local/bin/git
+#
+# or just the command, e.g.
+#
+# git
+#
+# to use PATH-based resolution of the binary to call.
+#
+#bzr_command : /usr/bin/bzr
+#cvs_command : /usr/bin/cvs
+#darcs_command : /usr/bin/darcs
+#git_command : /usr/bin/git
+#mercurial_command : /usr/bin/hg
+#rsync_command : /usr/bin/rsync
+#svn_command : /usr/bin/svn
+#tar_command : /bin/tar
+#g-common_command : /usr/bin/g-common
+
+
+#-----------------------------------------------------------
+# Command additional options
+#
+# These commnad options will be added to the above commands
+# when the overlay is added or synced.
+#
+# note: there are some options hardcoded in the backend
+# scripts already. All VCS types listed here are
+# for general consistency. Options may not be available
+# or recommended for all VCS types and/or add/sync operations.
+# Any options defined here are deemed:
+# "Use at your own risk"
+# and are not supported.
+#
+# eg:
+# svn_addopts : --config-option=config:miscellany:use-commit-times=yes

+#bzr_addopts :
+#bzr_syncopts :

+# Per VCS Post Sync/Add hooks
+#
+# The listed commands will be run after every add/sync operation.
+# All on one line If the repo path is needed, use a %cwd= in
+# where you want the path substituted in. It will be detected
+# and replaced with the correct path.
+#
+# eg: git_postsync : git-set-file-times
+# eg: git_postsync : git-set-file-times %cwd=
+# eg: git_postsync : git-set-file-times path=%cwd=
