This point is moot if we can call `git_default_config()` in `git_sequencer_config()` directly, though. > diff --git a/sequencer.c b/sequencer.c > index 3e4c3bbb265db58df22cfcb5a321fb74d822327e..b8cf679751449591d6f97102904e060ebee9d7a1 100644 > --- a/sequencer.c > +++ b/sequencer.c > @@ -688,6 +688,39 @@ static int run_git_commit(const char *defmsg, struct replay_opts *opts, > return run_command(&cmd); > } > > +static enum cleanup_mode default_msg_cleanup = CLEANUP_NONE; > +static char *default_gpg_sign; I was ready to shout about global state not meshing well with libified code, but as long as we're sure that these values are set only while Git executes single-threaded, still, it is the correct way to do it: these settings reflect the config, and therefore *are* kinda global (at least until the day when the submodule fans try to call `git commit` in a submodule using the `struct repository` data structure). In short: this code is good (and I was just describing a little bit of my thinking, to demonstrate that I tried to be a diligent reviewer :-)). Thanks, Dscho
