The original code used to allow the short-and-sweet valueless true
[core]
fsyncobjectfiles
but it no longer does by calling it a nonbool error. This breaks
existing users' repositories that have been happily working, doesn't
it?
Perhaps
if (value && !strcmp(value, "batch"))
fsync_object_files = FSYNC_OBJECT_FILES_BATCH;
else if (git_config_bool(var, value))
fsync_object_files = FSYNC_OBJECT_FILES_ON;
else
fsync_object_files = FSYNC_OBJECT_FILES_OFF;

This block of code looked familiar and I was about to complain "why
add it in one step and remove it in another?"
But it is a different instance from the one that was added in one of
the previous patches ;-).

This allows the caller that can take advantage of writeout-only mode
to naturally fall back on the full sync per each file if we cannot do
a writeout-only sync. OK.

If we are introducing "enum fsync_action", we should have some way
to make it clear that we are covering all the possible values of
"action".
Switching on action, i.e.
switch (action) {
case FSYNC_WRITEOUT_ONLY:
...
break;
case FSYNC_HARDWARE_FLUSH:
...
break;
default:
BUG("unexpected git_fsync(%d) call", action);
}
would be one way to do so.
Thanks.
