For a specific git repo, when I clone or fetch the repo, I encounters the
warning

remote: warning: ignoring unknown core.fsync component 'true'
remote: Enumerating objects: 41, done.

Unpacking objects: 100% (41/41), 37.51 MiB | 10.91 MiB/s, done.

But after clone the repo, I didn't see core.fsync in my .git/config. And
there isn't anything relates core.fsync.
The problem doesn't exist on the client-side, but rather on the remote
as indicated by the "remote: " prefix. So there's nothing you can do on
the client-side to address the problem, you'll have to reach out to the
admin of that repository and tell them that the repository uses an
invalid value for "core.fsync".

I also tried git with different version (2.25.1 and 2.34.1) to clone the
repo, both will show this warning. What configuration causes this warning?
It's "core.fsync" indeed, but not on your side. The config does not take
a boolean, but rather a list of components that should use fsync. I
guess the admin wanted to just fsync everything, but in that case you
don't want "core.fsync=true" but "core.fsync=all".
