I was expecting this to be set system (or at least global) wide most of the time like (ex: core.ignorecase, credential.helper) neither of which I can relate to a command line parameter. > Other than that, the feature itself makes quite a lot of sense. should I target maint/master?, next conflicts because of ab/no-kwset and it also conflicts with other in fly features too (some not even in pu), which is why now is based on pu and depends on ab/pcre-jit-fixes Carlo
