From: John Cai <redacted> Instead of including USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE by default on every builtin, remove it from builtin.h and add it where necessary to individual builtins/*. The next step will be to migrate each builtin from having to use the_repository.
I didn't notice this until I compile-tested the merge result to 'seen', but this omits some files in builtin/*.c hierarchy and add the USE_* variable to the rest. That makes the step impossible to review this step. Can we make this step to mechanically (1) remove definition of the USE_* variable from builtin.h and (2) add it to everything that includes builtin.h and (3) do nothing else? Then each of the files in builtin/*.c that this iteration omitted can explicitly lose the USE_* variable in its own separate follow-up patch (e.g. "this file did not need to access the_repository either directly or indirectly", or "with these changes, this file now does not depend implicitly on the_repository, so lose USE_* definition at the same time"). Thanks.
