Subject: [PATCH] config: move core.ignorestat into repo config
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 11:31:29 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.2278.git.1792755089871.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Joy Gundu <soniqjjj@gmail.com>
The core.ignorestat setting is currently stored in the standalone
assume_unchanged global variable. This makes the configuration state
harder to encapsulate as Git moves towards being usable as a library.
Store the setting in struct repo_config_values instead and update its
consumers to read the value through repo_config_values(). This removes
another standalone global while preserving the existing behavior.
Add a test covering the effect of core.ignorestat on updated paths.
