From: Burak Kaan Karaçay Date: Wed, 11 Mar 2026 15:19:19 GMT Subject: [PATCH 0/4] wean start_command() off the_repository Message-ID: <20260311151923.4178655-1-bkkaracay@gmail.com> Hi, start_command() relies on the_repository due to the 'close_object_store' flag in 'struct child_process'. Introduce repo_start_command() to allow working with arbitrary repositories. Turn start_command() into a macro that wraps repo_start_command() and migrate the existing callers with a cocci script. For callers that cannot access 'the_repository' due to the lack of USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE, define the macro. If the caller already has a local repository context, pass it explicitly instead of defining the macro. Thanks, Burak Kaan Karaçay Burak Kaan Karaçay (4): run-command: add repo_start_command() run-command: use repo_start_command() in strict callers run-command: redefine start_command() as a wrapper macro cocci: convert start_command() to repo_start_command() archive-tar.c | 2 +- branch.c | 2 +- builtin/credential-cache.c | 4 +++- builtin/difftool.c | 4 ++-- builtin/gc.c | 16 ++++++++-------- builtin/help.c | 2 +- builtin/index-pack.c | 2 +- builtin/merge.c | 2 +- builtin/notes.c | 2 +- builtin/receive-pack.c | 6 +++--- builtin/remote-ext.c | 4 +++- builtin/repack.c | 2 +- builtin/replace.c | 2 +- builtin/upload-archive.c | 2 +- builtin/worktree.c | 2 +- bundle-uri.c | 2 +- bundle.c | 2 +- column.c | 3 ++- compat/mingw.c | 2 +- connect.c | 4 ++-- connected.c | 2 +- contrib/coccinelle/the_repository.cocci | 3 +++ convert.c | 2 +- credential.c | 3 ++- daemon.c | 6 +++--- diff.c | 2 +- editor.c | 2 +- fetch-pack.c | 4 ++-- http-backend.c | 2 +- imap-send.c | 2 +- midx-write.c | 4 +++- odb.c | 2 +- pager.c | 2 +- parallel-checkout.c | 2 +- promisor-remote.c | 2 +- prompt.c | 3 ++- range-diff.c | 2 +- reachable.c | 2 +- remote-curl.c | 2 +- repack-cruft.c | 4 +++- repack-filtered.c | 4 +++- repack-midx.c | 4 +++- repack-promisor.c | 6 ++++-- run-command.c | 12 ++++++------ run-command.h | 6 ++++-- send-pack.c | 4 ++-- sub-process.c | 5 ++++- submodule.c | 12 ++++++------ t/helper/test-run-command.c | 6 ++++-- transport-helper.c | 6 +++--- upload-pack.c | 4 ++-- 51 files changed, 108 insertions(+), 81 deletions(-) -- 2.53.0
