# [PATCH 0/1] [v2.24.0-rc0 BUG] index.version is not parsed correctly 3 messages from 2019-10-23 to 2019-10-24. Participants: Derrick Stolee via GitGitGadget, Philip Oakley.

This time it's not due to a strange side-effect of submodules but rather that I was careless while copy-pasting some boilerplate code. Basically, most of the config options used in repo-settings.c are boolean settings. Except that "index.version" is an int setting! I found this while incorporating v2.24.0-rc0 into our microsoft/git fork and consuming it in VFS for Git. We really care about the index having version 4! The tests I added around how the index version is set were not adequate to cover the case of only "index.version=4". Add a test to prevent this issue from happening again.

Unfortunately, that file looked like a lot of boilerplate and what is clearly a factor of copy-paste overload, the config setting is parsed with repo_config_ge_bool() instead of repo_config_get_int(). This means that a setting "index.version=4" would not register correctly and would revert to the default version of 3. I caught this while incorporating v2.24.0-rc0 into the VFS for Git codebase, where we really care that the index is in version 4. This was not caught by the codebase because the version checks placed in t1600-index.sh did not test the "basic" scenario enough. Here, we modify the test to include these normal settings to not be overridden by features.manyFiles or GIT_INDEX_VERSION. While the "default" version is 3, this is demoted to version 2 in do_write_index() when not necessary.
