What probably matters to youSection of the release
The origin of the remote-control setting is computed at startup but no code in the build consumes it.
What
Resolving whether remote control is on at startup now returns the origin of the value as well: managed policy, a command-line flag, user settings, an older global config value, a project or local setting turning it off, or nothing set. The warning that repo-scoped settings are ignored is unchanged. Nothing in the build was found reading the origin.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
