Commit 30984ed2e9 (format-patch: support deep threading, 2009-02-19), introduced the following lines: #define THREAD_SHALLOW 1 [...] thread = git_config_bool(var, value) && THREAD_SHALLOW; Since git_config_bool() returns a bool, the trailing `&& THREAD_SHALLOW` is a no-op. In Python, `x and y` is equivalent to `y if x else x`[1]. Since this seems to be a Python-ism that's mistakenly leaked into our code, convert this to the equivalent C expression.
