This shouldn't be needed either.  My assumption was that if someone
explicitly asked for multiple threads we're better off failing than
silently ignoring their request.  The default/automatic setting will
detect the number of cpus and behave correctly.

No. I can have ~/.gitconfig shared between different machines. One
with multithread support and one without. I should not have to fall
back to conditional includes in order to use the same config file on
the machine without multithread.


If you want to share the ~/.gitconfig across machines that have different numbers of CPUs, it makes more sense to me to leave the setting at the "auto" setting rather than specifically overriding it to a number that won't work on at least one of your machines. Then it all "just works" without the need to conditional includes.
