# Configuring The Pager
|
||||
|
||||
When you run Git commands that produce a bunch of output, Git will use a
|
||||
pager to present the content starting at the beginning, rather than spitting
|
||||
it all out to the screen at once. This will almost always come in handy for
|
||||
commands like `git-diff` and `git-log`.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Git uses `less` as its pager.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also choose to configure it to something else by updating your git
|
||||
config file or by running the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ git config --global core.pager 'more'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you'd like to turn the pager off altogether, set it to a blank string.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ git config --global core.pager ''
|
||||
```
