Subject: config: use repo_ignore_case() to access core.ignorecase
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e6a79c9eb88e9bb07af94cc35dfdb392de56456a;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

config: use repo_ignore_case() to access core.ignorecase

Replace the accesses to the global 'ignore_case' variable with
calls to 'repo_ignore_case(the_repository)'. This step eliminates
the 'ignore_case' global state.

Note on compat/win32/path-utils.c:
To eliminate the global state, several helper functions
(e.g. 'win32_fspathncmp()') now read from
'repo_ignore_case(the_repository)'. While this introduces
dependency on 'repository.h' into the 'compat/', it avoids massive
refactoring of the signatures across the codebase.
