"cache": The word "cache" is in Git often used for "index"
"variable value" can be written as "key value"
"usual": I don't think we handle "unusual" config files,
(so can we drop the word usual ?)
I think the (important) first line can be written like this:

Do we need a whole strbuf for the key?
Or could a "char *key" work as well?
(and/or could it be "const char *key" ?

why "e" ? Will "node" be easier to read ? Or entry ?

Hm, either NULL could mean "unset==remove" the value, (but we don't do that, do we?
Or it could mean a programming or runtime error?, Should there be a warning ?

When malloc() is replaced by xcalloc() the x = NULL and y = 0 can go away,
and the code is shorter and easier to read.

We could get rid of the variable "int num_values" by simply writing
result = values->items[values->nr-1].string;
