If a new config file gets introduced at `~/.config/git/config`, what

What will be the new flag to access it? I mean anything new like
--system / --global going to be introduced?
The new order would be:
`/etc/gitconfig` > `~/.config/git/config` > `~/.gitconfig` > `.git/config`
There won't be new flag to access it.
You can access it with --global only if ~/.gitconfig doesn't exist.
But I will try to create another patch _only_ for reading first. So if
git doesn't find a value in ~/.gitconfig or if this file doesn't
exist, git will search this value in ~/.config/git/config if this file
exists.
But for the time being, I don't know how to do it.
