From: Phillip Wood Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2025 13:35:27 +0000 (+0100) Subject: config: warn on core.commentString=auto X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a0e6aaea7da5134bdc784c6d68d4cc2125865330;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git config: warn on core.commentString=auto As support for this setting was deprecated in the last commit print a warning (or die when WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES is enabled) if it is set. Avoid bombarding the user with warnings by only printing it (a) when running commands that call "git commit" and (b) only once per command. Some scaffolding is added to repo_read_config() to allow it to detect deprecated config settings and warn about them. As both "core.commentChar" and "core.commentString" set the comment character we record which one of them is used and tailor the warning message appropriately. Note the odd combination of die_message() followed by die(NULL) is to allow the next commit to insert a call to advise() in the middle.
