Some loose thinking, how the core.untrackedcache and the
command line can work together:
core.untrackedcache = unset
everything is as today
if --test-untracked-cache is used on command line,
the test is run, additionally the result is stored
in the config variable core.untrackedcache
core.untrackedcache = true
same as --force-untracked-cache
if --no-untracked-cache is given on command line,
this has higher priority
core.untrackedcache = false
same as --no-untracked-cache
if --force-untracked-cache is given on command line,
this has higher priority
Does this support the workflow described by Ævar ?
