I did do a thorough review on v1 in the past and did a little less thorough review on v2, but the range-diff is tiny anyway.

Version two removes the controversial commits around global config. With this, this patch series is not able to drop USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE from the object-file.c yet. Nevertheless, the whole series is still worthwhile to me.
