If a user is interacting with their config files primarily by the 'git

There's asimilar issue being worked on under Git-for-Windows with some
proposed code for this very 'problem'
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/2399 and a GitGitGadget PR
https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/478
cc'ing Matthew to help coordination.
