So I guess this patch was split out because of our recent push to not
make further changes to `repo_config_values()`? If so, it would have
made sense to point that out explicitly both here, and in the original
thread that you've sent.
In any case, the patch is obviously correct and is a good improvement in
my opinion. So this looks good to me, thanks.
Patrick
