We already have the basic "git_config_get_value()" function and its "repo_*" and "configset" siblings to get a given "key" and assign the last key found to a provided "value". But some callers don't care about that value, but just want to use the return value of the "get_value()" function to check whether the key exist (or another non-zero return value). The immediate motivation for this is that a subsequent commit will need to change all callers of the "*_get_value_multi()" family of functions. In two cases here we (ab)used it to check whether we had any values for the given key, but didn't care about the return value. The rest of the callers here used various other config API functions to do the same, all of which resolved to the same underlying functions to provide the answer. Some of these were using either git_config_get_string() or git_config_get_string_tmp(), see fe4c750fb13 (submodule--helper: fix a configure_added_submodule() leak, 2022-09-01) for a recent example. We can now use a helper function that doesn't require a throwaway variable. We could have changed git_configset_get_value_multi() to accept a "NULL" as a "dest" for all callers, but let's avoid changing the behavior of existing API users. Having an "unused" value that we throw away internal to config.c is cheap. Another name for this function could have been "*_config_key_exists()", as suggested in [1]. That would work for all of these callers, and would currently be equivalent to this function, as the git_configset_get_value() API normalizes all non-zero return values to a "1". But adding that API would set us up to lose information, as e.g. if git_config_parse_key() in the underlying configset_find_element() fails we'd like to return -1, not 1. Let's change the underlying configset_find_element() function to support this use-case, we'll make further use of it in a subsequent commit where the git_configset_get_value_multi() function itself will expose this new return value. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqczadkq9f.fsf@gitster.g/ Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@xxxxxxxxx> --- builtin/gc.c | 5 +--- builtin/submodule--helper.c | 7 +++--- builtin/worktree.c | 3 +-- config.c | 50 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ config.h | 19 +++++++++++++- 5 files changed, 66 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin/gc.c b/builtin/gc.c index 02455fdcd73..e38d1783f30 100644 --- a/builtin/gc.c +++ b/builtin/gc.c @@ -1493,7 +1493,6 @@ static int maintenance_register(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) };
