The previous config handling relied on global variables, called git_default_config() even when the key had already been handled by git_sequencer_config() and did not initialize the diff configuration variables. Improve this by: i) loading the default values for message cleanup and gpg signing of commits into struct replay_opts; ii) restructuring the code to return immediately once a key is handled; and iii) calling git_diff_basic_config(). Note that unfortunately it is not possible to return early if the key is handled by git_gpg_config() as it does not indicate to the caller if the key has been handled or not. The sequencer should probably have been calling git_diff_basic_config() before as it creates a patch when there are conflicts. The shell version uses 'diff-tree' to create the patch so calling git_diff_basic_config() should match that. Although 'git commit' calls git_diff_ui_config() I don't think the output of print_commit_summary() is affected by anything that is loaded by that as print_commit_summary() always turns on rename detection so would ignore the value in the user's configuration anyway. The other values loaded by git_diff_ui_config() are about the formatting of patches so are not relevant to print_commit_summary().

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the
documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
(man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is
installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
