The first include must be <git-compat-util.h> or common include files that include <git-compat-util.h> as the first thing, like <builtin.h>.

As the file already includes <builtin.h>, extra inclusion of <compat/posix.h> before everything else is an absolute no-no.

By the way, I do not see any "validation" in the patch as the title claims. Perhaps retitle it to "repo: add path.git-prefix key" or something simpler like that?
