There only are three existing callers to the function, and only one of them rely on the current "non-zero is error, zero is good" semantics, so updating that caller (and perhaps vetting the other callers to see if they also _should_ pay attention to the return value, at least to detect errors of not number of paths updated) shouldn't be that much more effort, and would be a good update to the API regardless of this new feature, I would think. > if (write_locked_index(&the_index, &index_lock, 0)) > die(_("unable to write new_index file")); > commit_style = COMMIT_NORMAL; > @@ -1413,6 +1428,10 @@ static int git_commit_config(const char *k, const char *v, void *cb) > config_commit_verbose = git_config_bool_or_int(k, v, &is_bool); > return 0; > } > + if (!strcmp(k, "commit.preciousdirtyindex")) { > + allow_dirty_index = !git_config_bool(k, v); > + return 0; > + } > > status = git_gpg_config(k, v, NULL); > if (status)
