Function resolve_notes_ref_with_config 

pub fn resolve_notes_ref_with_config(
    git_dir: &Path,
    ref_override: Option<&str>,
    config: &GitConfig,
) -> Result<NotesRef>

Like resolve_notes_ref, but resolves core.notesRef against a caller-supplied effective config instead of re-reading <git_dir>/config blindly.

Callers that have already resolved the repository config — include/ includeIf directives plus command-line -c / GIT_CONFIG_* overrides — pass it here so the notes ref honours the same core.notesRef the rest of the command sees. The explicit override and GIT_NOTES_REF still take precedence, matching git.
