You use SIZE_MAX as the sentinel for "not set", and 0 as the sentinel
for "no limit". That seems kind of backwards.
I guess you are inheriting this from the existing code, which lets
GIT_ALLOC_LIMIT=0 mean "no limit". I'm not sure if we want to keep that
or not (it would be backwards incompatible to change it, but we are
already breaking compatibility here by assuming bytes rather than
kilobytes; I think that's OK because this is not a documented feature,
or one intended to be used externally).

This and the next patch both look OK to me, but I notice this part is
largely duplicated between the two. We already have git_env_bool to do a
similar thing for boolean environment variables. Should we do something
similar like:
diff --git a/config.c b/config.c
index 058505c..11919eb 100644
--- a/config.c
+++ b/config.c

int git_config_system(void)
{
return !git_env_bool("GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM", 0);
It's not a lot of code, but I think the callers end up being much easier
to read:
if (limit == SIZE_MAX)
limit = git_env_ulong("GIT_ALLOC_LIMIT", 0);

This part is duplicated, too, though I do not know if the infrastructure
to avoid that is worth the trouble. Unless you wanted to do a whole:
check_limit(&limit, "GIT_ALLOC_LIMIT", size);
or something, but I am also not convinced that is not just obfuscating
things.
