I'd do that in python or perl but in C it changes the return value which
may not matter but if the git convention is to return -1 for errors then
this deviates from that.

I kept it separate to be more flexible, imagining that in the future
there maybe other commands that want to call git_sequencer_config()
followed by some_othor_config() before git_default_config(). I don't
have a strong opinion either way.

Yes that would be better, the old name came from the file it was in.
