+'GIT_TRACE_PACK_ACCESS'::
+	If this variable is set to a path, a file will be created at
+	the given path logging all accesses to any packs. For each
+	access, the pack file name and an offset in the pack is
+	recorded. This may be helpful for troubleshooting some
+	pack-related performance problems.

+'GIT_TRACE_PACKET'::
+	If this variable is set, it shows a trace of all packets
+	coming in or out of a given program. This can help with
+	debugging object negotiation or other protocol issues. Tracing
+	is turned off at a packet starting with "PACK".

 GIT_LITERAL_PATHSPECS::
 	Setting this variable to `1` will cause Git to treat all
 	pathspecs literally, rather than as glob patterns. For example,
