Merge branch 'jk/setup-sequence-update'
There were numerous corner cases in which the configuration files are read and used or not read at all depending on the directory a Git command was run, leading to inconsistent behaviour. The code to set-up repository access at the beginning of a Git process has been updated to fix them. * jk/setup-sequence-update: t1007: factor out repeated setup init: reset cached config when entering new repo init: expand comments explaining config trickery config: only read .git/config from configured repos test-config: setup git directory t1302: use "git -C" pager: handle early config pager: use callbacks instead of configset pager: make pager_program a file-local static pager: stop loading git_default_config() pager: remove obsolete comment diff: always try to set up the repository diff: handle --no-index prefixes consistently diff: skip implicit no-index check when given --no-index patch-id: use RUN_SETUP_GENTLY hash-object: always try to set up the git repository
