Potentially a variation of the `scalar diagnose` code could be useful in `git bugreport`, opt-in via a new option. But that's not the purpose of this patch series. > Could this also not be useful in fsck, as --diagnose? That's the go-to > command when there are issues for many users. I can see where you're coming from, but `fsck`'s mission is to verify the integrity of the local Git database. That is very different from the mission of `scalar diagnose`, which is to help diagnose issues (whether they are truly bugs or usage patterns causing unfortunate performance).
