There was some discussion after v4. I think the open issues are:
- the commit message is rather terse (it should describe motivation,
and can refer to the docs for the "how")
- the syntax might be more clear as:
[include-if "gitdir:..."]
or
[include "gitdir-is:..."]
- there is an open question of whether we would like to go this route,
maintaining backwards compatibility syntactically (and thus having
these includes quietly skipped in older versions), or introduce a
breaking syntax that could be more convenient, like:
[if-gitdir(...):section]
conditional-but-no-include-necessary = true
I do not have a strong opinion myself, though I had written the
original [include] assuming syntactic compatibility, and I think it
has worked out (e.g., you can manipulate include.path via "git
config" just as you would any other key).
