I think this is very much futureproof and a sensible thing to have a "platform_core_config()" call here. That way, we do not have to say the details of what platform specific thing each platform wants when init_db_config works. > @@ -361,6 +364,9 @@ int init_db(const char *git_dir, const char *real_git_dir, > } > startup_info->have_repository = 1; > > + /* Just look for `init.templatedir` and `core.hidedotfiles` */ And from that point of view, replacing `core.hidedotfiles` with something like "platform specific core config" would be more appropriate. > + git_config(git_init_db_config, NULL); > + We use git_init_db_config from create_default_files(), which is a function called several lines after this point; shouldn't that now be removed from create_default_files()? > safe_create_dir(git_dir, 0); > > init_is_bare_repository = is_bare_repository(); > diff --git a/t/t0001-init.sh b/t/t0001-init.sh > index 42a263cada..35ede1b0b0 100755 > --- a/t/t0001-init.sh > +++ b/t/t0001-init.sh > @@ -453,6 +453,18 @@ test_expect_success 're-init from a linked worktree' ' > ) > ' > > +test_expect_success MINGW 'core.hidedotfiles = false' ' > + git config --global core.hidedotfiles false && > + rm -rf newdir && > + ( > + sane_unset GIT_DIR GIT_WORK_TREE GIT_CONFIG && > + mkdir newdir && > + cd newdir && > + git init > + ) && This is not incorrect per-se, but I think most tests do the mkdir outside subshell, i.e. rm -rf newdir && mkdir newdir && ( cd newdir && sane_unset ... && ... ) && Other than these, I find nothing questionable in the patch. Nicely done.
