Eh, it does use it, so, "the underlying trailer code uses its value", would be the correct version of the last sentence. The underlying trailer.c has two calls to git_config() to lazy-load its own set of config variables (which is justified, as its caller is not necessarily the "interpret-trailers" subcommand), but their callbacks are not good places to call git_default_config() from for obvious reasons. It has to be done in "interpret-trailers" (and other callers of the machinery should already have learned what core.commentChar is with their own configuration calls) like the patch I am reviewing does. Looks perfect.
