Right. feature_snapshot() has here

    my (@fmts) = @_;
    my ($val) = git_get_project_config('snapshot');

...though git_get_project_config returns scalar.

This would require changes in git_get_project_config(), which would
need to be able to deal with multi-valued result (it caches these
results, so we pay only one cost of `git config` call).

Errr... actually git_get_project_config() strips '_' from $key, though
not for some strange reason '-'.

BTW. though it is 'showsizes' in code, it usually is 'showSizes' in
config file (camelCase convention, lowercased by git-config).
