[PATCH v1 0/8] repo_config_values: migrate more globals

Base series
===========
This series builds on top of the merged series:
  [PATCH v7 0/3] Move repo-specific globals into repo_config_values
available at:
  https://lore.kernel.org/git/<cover.1771258573.git.belkid98@gmail.com>
It should be applied on top of that series.

Overview ======== This series continues the effort to migrate repository-specific global variables into struct repo_config_values, further reducing global state and improving repository isolation.

The previous series introduced the infrastructure for storing repository-dependent configuration in repo_config_values. This series extends that work by moving additional environment-related globals into that struct and updating their call sites accordingly.

This helps avoid cross-repository interference when multiple repositories are used within the same process, and continues preparing Git for improved library usage and better encapsulation of repository state.
