Clearing the global variable base_auto feels unclean to me, as does the
introduction of a callback for that purpose. Why not set base_commit
after reading the config and before parsing command line options to
reflect base_auto? That would achieve the intended precedence in a
simpler way, something like this:
diff --git a/builtin/log.c b/builtin/log.c
index a26f223ab4..af1b0d0209 100644
