Added comments make it easier to follow what is going on and more
importantly why. I very much like it ;-)

Sorry, but I do not quite get this comment in two ways.
- It talks about "if more than one" but the code seems to use
regex-none even when there is only one.
- I agree that use of set-multivar with regex-none is the right way
to append new values to multi valued configuration, but wouldn't
the sequence be (1) first clear everything and then (2) set new
ones one by one?
Ahh, OK, the "config-set" we do first is the "clear everything"
step.
We want to overwrite any existing config. First clear any
existing config, and then write our branches one-by-one.
Use of CONFIG_REGEX_NONE ensures that the multiple values
are appended to the same variable.
perhaps?

There does not seem to be any code to forbid "rebasing" when
remotes->nr != 1, though. Did I miss a call to die() earlier?

In other words, I would have expected something in this else clause.

Thanks.
