Subject: [PATCH] maintenance: core.commitGraph=false prevents writes

From: Derrick Stolee <[email-masked]>

Recently, a user had an issue due to combining
fetch.writeCommitGraph=true with core.commitGraph=false. The root bug
has been resolved by preventing commit-graph writes when
core.commitGraph is disabled. This happens inside the 'git commit-graph
write' command, but we can be more aware of this situation and prevent
that process from ever starting in the 'commit-graph' maintenance task.

    maintenance: core.commitGraph=false prevents writes
    
    As requested [1], this prevents the extra process when core.commitGraph
    is disabled.
    
    This is based on ds/maintenance-commit-graph-auto-fix.
