If I created a getter/setter then the variable would no longer be
extern'd.
To be clear, you're advocating that I change the function signature
for all of the functions listed above to include the new parameter? That
seems like a lot of parameter bloat when I could just set the variable
in this compilation unit and access it directly in the
`write_worktree_linking_files()` function.
