I think the above goes out of order: it states the "how" before the
"what". Instead, a commit message should lead with the problem the
change aims to solve.
Is the idea here that until this patch, we're only able to read
worktree config from a repository when extensions.worktreeConfig is
set in the_repository, meaning that
- when examining submodule config in a process where the_repository
represents the superproject, we do not read the submodule's worktree
config even if extensions.worktreeConfig is set in the submodule,
unless the superproject has extensions.worktreeConfig set, and
- when examining submodule config in a process where the_repository
represents the superproject, we *do* read the submodule's worktree
config even if extensions.worktreeConfig is not set in the submodule,
if the superproject has extensions.worktreeConfig set, and
?
That sounds like a serious problem indeed. Thanks for fixing it.

I see. I'm not sure that's more important than other cases, but I
can understand if the problem was noticed in this circumstance. :)

Can we eliminate the repository_format_worktree_config global to save
the next caller from the same problem?

This undoes the caching the repository_format_worktree_config means to
do. Can we cache the value in "struct repository" instead? That way,
in the common case where we're reading the_repository, we wouldn't
experience a slowdown.

Can this use a helper like repo_git_path or strbuf_repo_git_path
(preferably one using strbuf like the latter)?

Nice!

Can this use the parse_options API?

Should this use die() or BUG()?

nit: this could be scoped to cmd__config:

Likewise: I think may want to use die() or BUG() (and likewise for other
USAGE_ERROR cases).
Thanks and hope that helps,
