Subject: object-file: get rid of `the_repository` in `read_loose_object()`
X-Git-Tag: v2.51.0-rc1~8^2~2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0df005353aca4e490478a4e8c2d090728599868e;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

object-file: get rid of `the_repository` in `read_loose_object()`

The function `read_loose_object()` takes a path to an object file and
tries to parse it. As such, the function does not depend on any specific
object database but instead acts as an ODB-independent way to read a
specific file. As such, all it needs as input is a repository so that we
can derive repo settings and the hash algorithm.

That repository isn't passed in as a parameter though, as we implicitly
depend on the global `the_repository`. Refactor the function so that we
pass in the repository as a parameter.
