Subject: [Outreachy PATCH 6/6] notes-utils: use the given repository
Date: Thu, 5 Nov 2026 21:33:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261105203344.48513-7-okhuomonajayi54@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261105203344.48513-1-okhuomonajayi54@gmail.com>
create_notes_commit() and commit_notes() take a repository, but
still read and update the notes ref in the_repository.
init_copy_notes_for_rewrite() does not take a repository at all:
it reads config and loads notes trees from the_repository.
Pass the repository through. The config callback keeps it on
struct notes_rewrite_cfg. The sequencer passes its repository;
am and notes pass the_repository for now. notes-utils.c no
longer uses the_repository, so drop USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE.
