This can be used to read configuration values directly from git's
database. For example it is useful for reading to be checked out
.gitmodules files directly from the database.

--file config-file::
Use the given config file instead of the one specified by GIT_CONFIG.
+--blob blob::
+ Similar to '--file' but use the given blob instead of a file. E.g.
+ you can use 'master:.gitmodules' to read values from the file
+ '.gitmodules' in the master branch. See "SPECIFYING REVISIONS"
+ section in linkgit:gitrevisions[7] for a more complete list of
+ ways to spell blob names.

--remove-section::
Remove the given section from the configuration file.
