I'm not sure I like this proposal. While it may be desirable to have
*some* settings stored per repository, for most settings I want them to
be remembered globally.

Git-gui tries to solve this by presenting two panes in the preferences
dialog, so that I can choose the scope of every setting I change. This
still doesn't help for things that are remembered implicitly, like the
window size.

I don't have good suggestions how to solve this; just pointing out
problems.
