I'm not sure I'm following. Are you saying that we should use
get_bloom_filter_settings() instead of reading the value from
r->settings directly?

Hmm. I think we're already doing the right thing here, no? IIUC, you're
saying to do something like:

    struct bloom_filter_settings *s = get_bloom_filter_settings(r);
    struct bloom_filter *f = get_or_compute_bloom_filter(r, c, ...);
    int hash_version;

    if (!f)
      return NULL;

    prepare_repo_settings(r);
    hash_version = r->settings.commit_graph_changed_paths_version;

    if (!(hash_version == -1 || hash_version == s->hash_version))
      return NULL; /* incompatible */
    return f;

?

If so, I think that we're already OK here, since s->hash_version is
always going to take the same value as f->version, since f->version is
assigned in bloom.c::load_bloom_filter_from_graph(), which does:

    filter->version = g->bloom_filter_settings->hash_version;

Or are we talking about two different things entirely? ;-)

Thanks,
