ah - good to know that this is already happening during repo initialization. Sounds somewhat similar to https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/6528. With a bit of luck all what is needed is `builder.readEnvironment()`.

yes I understand that. What I meant is that if it already happens with freshly initialized repos, this would indicate that NB isn't telling jgit to read the global config...

`readEnvironment()` turned out to be just a distraction. The configuration of the jgit `Repository` object does already contain the user and system config by default. Its probably a design decision...

it does support it. The low level actions need to be configured to take repo config into account, looks like they don't do that automatically. That is why I thought...

would be good to make it non-modal from the debugging perspective too. I remember once having to disable the splash when setting a breakpoint somewhere in the bootstrap code. >...
