The `include_by_branch()` function is responsible for evaluating whether
or not a specific include should be pulled in based on the currently
checked out branch. Naturally, his condition can only be evaluated when
we have a properly initialized repository with a ref store in the first
place. This is why the function guards against the case when either
`data->repo` or `data->repo->gitdir` are `NULL` pointers.
But the second check is insufficient: the `gitdir` may be set even
though the repository has not been initialized. Quoting "setup.c":
NEEDSWORK: currently we allow bogus GIT_DIR values to be set in some
code paths so we also need to explicitly setup the environment if the
user has set GIT_DIR. It may be beneficial to disallow bogus GIT_DIR
values at some point in the future.
So when either the GIT_DIR environment variable or the `--git-dir`
global option are set by the user then `the_repository` may end up with
an initialized `gitdir` variable. And this happens even when the dir is
invalid, like for example when it doesn't exist. It follows that only
checking for whether or not `gitdir` is `NULL` is not sufficient for us
to determine whether the repository has been properly initialized.
This issue can lead to us triggering a BUG: when using a config with an
"includeIf.onbranch:" condition outside of a repository while using the
`--git-dir` option pointing to an invalid Git directory we may end up
trying to evaluate the condition even though the ref storage format has
not been set up.
This bisects to 173761e21b (setup: start tracking ref storage format,
2023-12-29), but that commit really only starts to surface the issue
that has already existed beforehand. The code to check for `gitdir` was
introduced via 85fe0e800c (config: work around bug with
includeif:onbranch and early config, 2019-07-31), which tried to fix
similar issues when we didn't yet have a repository set up. But the fix
was incomplete as it missed the described scenario.
As the quoted comment mentions, we'd ideally refactor the code to not
set up `gitdir` with an invalid value in the first place, but that may
be a bigger undertaking. Instead, refactor the code to use the ref
storage format as an indicator of whether or not the ref store has been
set up to fix the bug.

Same as the preceding commits, storing the "core.warnAmbiguousRefs"
value globally is misdesigned as this setting may be set per repository.
Move the logic into the repo-settings subsystem. The usual pattern here
is that users are expected to call `prepare_repo_settings()` before they
access the settings themselves. This seems somewhat fragile though, as
it is easy to miss and leads to somewhat ugly code patterns at the call
sites.
Instead, introduce a new function that encapsulates this logic for us.
This also allows us to change how exactly the lazy initialization works
in the future, e.g. by only partially initializing values as requested
by the caller.

The value of "core.logAllRefUpdates" is being stored in the global

where it is entirely possible to access multiple repositories in the
same process which all have different values for this setting. So using
a single global variable to track it is plain wrong.
Remove the global variable. Instead, we now provide a new function part
of the repo-settings subsystem that parses the value for a specific
repository. While that may require us to read the value multiple times,
we work around this by reading it once when the ref backends are set up
and caching the value there.

In "environment.h" we have quite a lot of functions and variables that
either explicitly or implicitly depend on `the_repository`.
The implicit set of stateful declarations includes for example variables
which get populated when parsing a repository's Git configuration. This
set of variables is broken by design, as their state often depends on
the last repository config that has been parsed. So they may or may not
represent the state of `the_repository`.
Fixing that is quite a big undertaking, and later patches in this series
will demonstrate a solution for a first small set of those variables. So
for now, let's guard these with `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` so that
callers are aware of the implicit dependency.

The `read_early_config()` function can be used to read configuration
where a repository has not yet been set up. As such, it is optional
whether or not `the_repository` has already been initialized. If it was
initialized we use its commondir and gitdir. If not, the function will
try to detect the Git directories by itself and, if found, also parse
their config files.
This means that we implicitly rely on `the_repository`. Make this

The type of the out parameter of `git_config_get_expiry()` is a pointer
to a constant string, which creates the impression that ownership of the
returned data wasn't transferred to the caller. This isn't true though
and thus quite misleading.
Adapt the parameter to be of type `char **` and adjust callers
accordingly. While at it, refactor `get_shared_index_expire_date()` to
drop the static `shared_index_expire` variable. It is only used in that
function, and furthermore we would only hit the code where we parse the
expiry date a single time because we already use a static `prepared`
variable to track whether we did parse it.

When using `--fixed-value` with a key whose value is left empty (implied
as being "true"), 'git config' may crash when invoked like either of:
$ git config set --file=config --value=value --fixed-value \
section.key pattern
$ git config --file=config --fixed-value section.key value pattern
The original bugreport[1] bisects to 00bbdde141 (builtin/config:
introduce "set" subcommand, 2024-05-06), which is a red-herring, since
the original bugreport uses the new 'git config set' invocation.
The behavior likely bisects back to c90702a1f6 (config: plumb
--fixed-value into config API, 2020-11-25), which introduces the new
--fixed-value option in the first place.
Looking at the relevant frame from a failed process's coredump, the
crash appears in config.c::matches() like so:
(gdb) up
#1 0x000055b3e8b06022 in matches (key=0x55b3ea894360 "section.key", value=0x0,
store=0x7ffe99076eb0) at config.c:2884
2884 return !strcmp(store->fixed_value, value);
where we are trying to compare the `--fixed-value` argument to `value`,
which is NULL.
Avoid attempting to match `--fixed-value` for configuration keys with no
explicit value. A future patch could consider the empty value to mean
"true", "yes", "on", etc. when invoked with `--type=bool`, but let's
punt on that for now in the name of avoiding the segfault.

Use of the `the_repository` variable is deprecated nowadays, and we
slowly but steadily convert the codebase to not use it anymore. Instead,
callers should be passing down the repository to work on via parameters.
It is hard though to prove that a given code unit does not use this
variable anymore. The most trivial case, merely demonstrating that there
is no direct use of `the_repository`, is already a bit of a pain during
code reviews as the reviewer needs to manually verify claims made by the
patch author. The bigger problem though is that we have many interfaces
that implicitly rely on `the_repository`.
Introduce a new `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro that allows code
units to opt into usage of `the_repository`. The intent of this macro is
to demonstrate that a certain code unit does not use this variable
anymore, and to keep it from new dependencies on it in future changes,
be it explicit or implicit
For now, the macro only guards `the_repository` itself as well as
`the_hash_algo`. There are many more known interfaces where we have an
implicit dependency on `the_repository`, but those are not guarded at
the current point in time. Over time though, we should start to add
guards as required (or even better, just remove them).
Define the macro as required in our code units. As expected, most of our
code still relies on the global variable. Nearly all of our builtins
rely on the variable as there is no way yet to pass `the_repository` to
their entry point. For now, declare the macro in "biultin.h" to keep the
required changes at least a little bit more contained.

The "core.abbrev" config allows the user to specify the minimum length
when abbreviating object hashes. Next to the values "auto" and "no",
this config also accepts a concrete length that needs to be bigger or
equal to the minimum length and smaller or equal to the hash algorithm's
hex length. While the former condition is trivial, the latter depends on
the object format used by the current repository. It is thus a variable
upper boundary that may either be 40 (SHA-1) or 64 (SHA-256).
This has two major downsides. First, the user that specifies this config
must be aware of the object hashes that its repository use. If they want
to configure the value globally, then they cannot pick any value in the
range `[41, 64]` if they have any repository that uses SHA-1. If they
did, Git would error out when parsing the config.
Second, and more importantly, parsing "core.abbrev" crashes when outside
of a Git repository because we dereference `the_hash_algo` to figure out
its hex length. Starting with c8aed5e8da (repository: stop setting SHA1
as the default object hash, 2024-05-07) though, we stopped initializing
`the_hash_algo` outside of Git repositories.
Fix both of these issues by not making it an error anymore when the
given length exceeds the hash length. Instead, leave the abbreviated
length intact. `repo_find_unique_abbrev_r()` handles this just fine
except for a performance penalty which we will fix in a subsequent
commit.

...
Now that memory ownership rules around `git_config_string()` and
`git_config_pathname()` are clearer, it also got easier to spot that
the returned memory needs to be free'd. Plug a subset of those cases and
mark now-passing tests as leak free.

The out parameter of `git_config_string()` is a `const char **` even
though we transfer ownership of memory to the caller. This is quite
misleading and has led to many memory leaks all over the place. Adapt
the parameter to instead be `char **`.

The `check_roundtrip_encoding` variable is tracked in a `const char *`
even though it may contain allocated strings at times. The result is
that those strings may be leaking because we never free them.
Refactor the code to always store allocated strings in this variable.
The default value is handled in `check_roundtrip()` now, which is the
only user of the variable.
