Add a test for how 'git branch -m' handles the renaming of multiple config sections existing for one branch. The config format we use is hybrid machine/human editable, and we do our best to preserve the likes of comments and formatting when editing the file with git-config. This adds a test for the currently expected semantics in the face of some rather obscure edge cases which are unlikely to occur in practice.
