I share the concern that others have raised in this thread about not
having the_repository when one of the affected commands is ran outside
of the repository.

I'll bring these patches into my tree, but let's hold off on queueing
them into 'seen' for now.

In the meantime, as a style suggestion, it might be nice to provide a
wrapper for function foo() -> repo_foo(), where the former still exists,
but is a wrapper for repo_foo(the_repository) like we have done in
other similar transitions.

Thanks,
