Git: how to disable command suggestion

Sometimes, when I make a typo in a Git command, Git will offer suggestions for the command it thinks I was trying to type. For example:

$ git statu
git: 'statu' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Did you mean one of these?
        status
        stage
        stash

I find this functionality to be very slow; sometimes, I will have to wait a few seconds before the Git process exits. Is there any way to turn off this command suggestion functionality? Thanks.

Try the git config help.autoCorrect setting:

 git config help.autoCorrect  -1
 or
 git config help.autoCorrect  0

That is in decisecond, but if the value of this option is negative, the corrected command will be executed immediately.
If the value is 0 - the command will be just shown but not executed. This is the default.
