I did a quick git grep on "git_config_get_". The majority is still in
lower case. And given that this feature is not documented anywhere (I
had a quick look at config.h and api-config.txt and ended up checking
the code before the previous mail) yeah it's probably just safer to go
with lowercase. At least until the old callback style is gone.
