Ah, good catch. I think you're right, but it's better to be defensive
here. I'll add that check and also say that this will be caught by
setup.c.

Yes, it's also a simplification that we go straight from config to
variable here, instead of going through the candidate struct. As for
freeing repository_format_partial_clone, this is run once and never
again (guarded by "initialized" check) so there is no prior value to
free, and I don't think this variable needs to be freed.

So I think things are fine here, but in a later patch,
repository_format_partial_clone is moved to the struct repository, which
can be cleared with repo_clear(). I'll need to add a free there :-)

Thanks for looking at the patch set too.
