Subject: [PATCH v6 4/5] safe.directory: use git_protected_config()
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2022 18:13:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ec9258234142c4d1d164cbf475cb86e7b826bb8f.1656612839.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1261.v6.git.git.1656612839.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Glen Choo <chooglen@google.com>

Use git_protected_config() to read `safe.directory` instead of
read_very_early_config(), making it 'protected configuration only'.

As a result, `safe.directory` now respects "-c", so update the tests and
docs accordingly. It used to ignore "-c" due to how it was implemented,
not because of security or correctness concerns [1].
