This patch is based on Pasky's, with three notable differences:
- I did not yet update the documentation
- I named it .gitconfig, not .gitrc
- git-repo-config does not barf when a unique key is overridden locally
The last means that if you have something like
[alias]
l = log --stat -M
in ~/.gitconfig, and
[alias]
l = log --stat -M next..
in $GIT_DIR/config, then
git-repo-config alias.l
returns only one value, namely the value from $GIT_DIR/config.
If you set the environment variable GIT_CONFIG, $HOME/.gitconfig is not
read, and neither $GIT_DIR/config, but $GIT_CONFIG instead.
If you set GIT_CONFIG_LOCAL instead, it is interpreted instead of
$GIT_DIR/config, but $HOME/.gitconfig is still read.

I was just testing that "git ls-remote" change by Junio, and when you're
not in a git repository, it gives this totally bogus warning. The _target_
obviously has to be a git repository, but there's no reason why you'd have
to be in a local git repo when doing an ls-remote.
The reason is commit 73136b2e8a by Dscho: it
adds calls to git-repo-config in git-parse-remote.sh to get the remote
shorthands etc.
Now, either we should just hide and ignore the error from git-repo-config
(probably bad, because some errors _are_ valid - like git-repo-config
failing due to bad syntax in the config file), or we should just make
git-repo-config quietly handle the case of not being in a git repository.
This does the latter: just quietly accepting (and doing nothing - trying
to set a value will result in the lock-file failing) our lot in life
sounds better than dying with a bogus error message.

git config syntax updates
Another config file parsing fix.

This updates the hierarchical section name syntax to
[section<space>+"<randomstring>"]
where the only rule for "randomstring" is that it can't contain a newline,
and if you really want to insert a double-quote, you do it with \".
It turns that into the section name "secion.randomstring". The
"section" part is still case insensitive, but the "randomstring"
part is case sensitive.
So you could use this for things like
[email "torvalds@osdl.org"]
name = Linus Torvalds
if you wanted to do the "email->name" conversion as part of the config
file format (I'm not claiming that is sensible, I'm just giving it as an
insane example). That would show up as the association
email.torvalds@osdl.org.name -> Linus Torvalds
which is easy to parse (the "." in the email _looks_ ambiguous, but it
isn't: you know that there will always be a single key-name, so you find
the key name with "strrchr(name, '.')" and things are entirely
unambiguous).
Repo-config is updated to be able to parse the new format, and also
write things out in the new format.
[jc: rolled two patches from Linus and one fix-up from Sean into one,
with additional adjustments for t/t1300 test to check the case
insensitiveness of section base and variable and case sensitiveness
of the extended section part. Then stripped some part off to make
the result applicable to the stale 1.3.X series that does not have
recent enhancements. ]

With --get-regexp, output all key/value pairs where the key matches a
regexp. Example:
git-repo-config --get-regexp remote.*.url
will output something like
remote.junio.url git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
remote.gitk.url git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/gitk/gitk.git

This adds git-repo-config --list (or git-repo-config -l) support,
similar to what git-var -l does now (to be phased out so that we
have a single sane interface to the config file instead of fragmented
and confused API).

Currently, git-repo-config will just return the raw value of option
as specified in the config file; this makes things difficult for scripts
calling it, especially if the value is supposed to be boolean.
This patch makes it possible to ask git-repo-config to check if the option
is of the given type (int or bool) and write out the value in its
canonical form. If you do not pass --int or --bool, the behaviour stays
unchanged and the raw value is emitted.
This also incidentally fixes the segfault when option with no value is
encountered.
[jc: tweaked the option parsing a bit to make it easier to see
that the patch does not change anything but the type stuff in
the diff output. Also changed to avoid "foo ? : bar" construct. ]

AIX 5 has a /usr/include/regex.h containing this code:
#ifdef _NO_PROTO
extern char *regex();
extern char *regcmp();
#else /* _NO_PROTO */
extern char *regex(const char *, const char *, ...);
extern char *regcmp(const char *, ...);
#endif /* _NO_PROTO */
This means that repo-config.c is trying to redefine the `regex' symbol.
Here is a simple patch that just uses `regexp' as the symbol name instead.
