IIRC git_config_set_*() is Dscho's brainchild.  If he is available
to comment, it may be a valuable input.

Let me find time to take a look.

Can you two work out the preferred plan, taking relative importance,
priority, and difficulty between the topics into account, and report
to us how you want to proceed and why you chose the route once you
are done?

Unless the plan you two come up with is outrageously bad, such a
decision by stakeholders would be far more acceptable by the
community than going by my gut feeling.  In short, I'd prefer
decentralization ;-)

Having said that, I think this one is a simpler topic that is closer
to become stable enough than the other one, so it could be that the
rebases want to go the other direction.

Thanks.
