The only way these are connected is by a missing stack frame (probably optimized out) calling add_untracked_cache(). Still, it should be passing 'istate' throughout this process. The repo_config_get_string() call must also be coming from new_untracked_cache_flags() which is again a missing stack frame, but is called from new_untracked_cache(). Strangely, it's using a NULL 'repo' here which should have come from 'istate->repo', so we should have had a segfault earlier. Sorry for the drive-by commentary without any solution. This is just genuinely puzzling to me. Thanks, -Stolee
