Oops, that was a serious typo.  "notices" -> "fails to notice".
Hm, that's strange.  1.1.1 did notice this transformation for me,

# Huh?! (;

FWIW, I see this with Coccinelle 1.1.1, 1.0.8 and 1.0.6 as well.
Ok, I think I got this.

The transformation involves 'r->promisor_remote_config', where 'r' is
a 'struct repository*'.  However, 'promisor-remote.c' doesn't include
'repository.h' directly:

  $ grep '^#include' promisor-remote.c 
  #include "cache.h"
  #include "object-store.h"
  #include "promisor-remote.h"
  #include "config.h"
  #include "transport.h"
  #include "strvec.h"

If I add an '#include "repository.h" to 'promisor-remote.c', then
Coccinelle finds the transformation even when it processes this source
file on is own:
