Here is how I arrived at the opposite conclusion initially: Searching for 'ignore_env' shows that we care about it as well for the index and graft paths, which are not the object store, hence it would be better kept in the repository. (The alternative would be to duplicate it into the raw object store, but I do not like data duplication) But maybe it is better to duplicate this one bit instead of passing through a larger scoped object. I'll rework the patches. Thanks! Stefan
