I wonder whether or not we should write "rather than the repository
`$GIT_DIR/config`" instead of `.git/config`. The former is true for bare
repositories, too, but may in fact be more confusing than what you have
writen so clearly.

Perhaps `.git/config` is clear enough; I definitely don't feel strongly
about it.

Thanks,
