Hello everyone,

I’m an Outreachy intern working on reducing Git’s use of global
environment state. In Week 2, I focused on deglobalising parts of the
attributes configuration by making repository-dependent lookups explicit
instead of relying on implicit globals.


I wrote a short report with more details here:

Thanks,
