amont_runtime/config.rs
1//! Reading configuration — and reading it the way git itself does.
2//!
3//! Everything this project can be tuned with is a `git config` key, so the
4//! honest implementation of that promise is to let git do the parsing.
5//! `git config --type=bool` implements git-config(1) by definition: `on`,
6//! `yes`, `1`, an empty value, and every capitalisation of each. A hand-rolled
7//! `matches!(v, "true" | "1" | "yes")` is our own dialect wearing git's
8//! clothes, and it had already drifted — `git config amont.fix on` looked
9//! like it worked and did not.
10//!
11//! The exit code carries the part that matters most:
12//!
13//! | exit | means |
14//! |---|---|
15//! | 0 | the key is set, and stdout is git's normalised value |
16//! | 1 | the key is not set anywhere git looked |
17//! | 128 | the key is set to something git refuses to parse, and said so on stderr |
18//!
19//! Collapsing 1 and 128 into "no" is the bug this module exists to prevent: a
20//! limit you believe you raised and did not is exactly the silent-config
21//! failure that `hook.skip` announcements were introduced for. So a bad value
22//! falls back to the shipped default **and says so**, once per key per run.
