This doesn't work either. Cherry picking is not triggering the loading
of this value at all.

This is because git-cherry-pick turns into a git-merge-recursive. This
calls get_renames() in merge-recursive.c, which calls diff_setup,
setting the renamelimit to -1, then calls diff_setup_done(), which
sets the renamelimit to diff_rename_limit_default since rename_limit
was < 0. diff_rename_limit_default is the hard-coded value of 100. At
no point does merge-recursive call git_diff_ui_config() in diff.c that
reads in the diff.renamelimit user defined value, so in the end the
cherry pick uses the hardcoded value of 100.
