tl;dr: This series contributes the core part of the Scalar command to
the Git project. This command provides an opinionated way to create
and configure Git repositories with a focus on very large
repositories.

I thought after
https://lore.kernel.org/git/nycvar.QRO.7.76.6.2110062241150.395@tvgsbejvaqbjf.bet/ (local)
that you'd update merge.renames to true on what is now patch 7.  Did
you end up changing your mind, or was this overlooked?

Oops! Thank you so much for the reminder.

Will fix. I do not plan on sending out a new iteration for a few more days
because I do not want to send lots of patches to the list right now,
reviewer bandwidth seems to be stretched quite a bit already.

Other than that, this round looks good to me.  (I have no opinion on
the build system integration, other than that I like it being optional
and not installed by default.)

Yes, I very much wanted to keep this optional and as well-encapsulated as
possible for the moment. (Hence the way it integrates with Git's build
process.)

Thank you for chiming in!

Ciao,
