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.

Bandwidth which is further stretched by continuing to send updates to
this topic while ignoring outstanding feedback.

The feedback you are referring to is probably the repeated demand to
integrate Scalar deeply into Git's build process.

As I have tired of replying, it is not the time for that yet.

Repeating that demand does not make it more sensible, nor does it
magically make it the right time.

Nor is it credible to call the build "broken" when it does what it is
supposed to do, thank you very much.

Ciao,
Johannes
