I guess the mention of "inflexible" and "redirection" above refers to some incompatibile behaviour we would introduce if we just replaced the manual spawning of "gc --auto" with a call to run_auto_maintenance(), but I would have expected that will be solved by making the interface to run_auto_maintenance() richer, not forcing the callers that would want to deviate from the norm to write the second half of the run_auto_maintenance() themselves. > +int run_auto_maintenance(int quiet) > +{ > + struct child_process maint = CHILD_PROCESS_INIT; > + if (!prepare_auto_maintenance(quiet, &maint)) > + return 0; > return run_command(&maint); > } But given that the "second half" is to just call run_command() on the prepared child control structure, it is probably not a huge deal. It just felt somewhat an uneven API surface that 'quiet' can be controlled with just a single bit and doing anything more than that would require the caller to go into the structure to tweak. Will queue. Thanks.
