Okay, makes sense. However...

By referencing only the merge commit in the above message, you force
reviewers and future readers to chase down and locate the actual
commit[*] which taught repo_config() to accept NULL for `repo`. To be
more friendly to those people, you should help them by instead
referencing the commit[*] itself.
