Yeah.  I think we could well adjust this to accept "0" or "false" to
turn it off if we liked, but it doesn't right now.  I think that could
well be valuable if we wanted to make a change in the future.

I could submit a patch to do this over the next couple of days for this
variable and GIT_CURL_VERBOSE as well if we decide we want to do so.

It is documented in git-config(1), but of course we should also document
in git(1) as suggested.  Do you want to turn this into a nice patch or
would you prefer that I turned it into one with your sign-off?
