Currently it does???
Here is what I get from using the command from master and next:
$ cd /var/tmp
$ ls -d /.git /var/.git /var/tmp/.git /var/tmp/config
ls: /.git: No such file or directory
ls: /var/.git: No such file or directory
ls: /var/tmp/.git: No such file or directory
ls: /var/tmp/config: No such file or directory
$ git config -l >/dev/null ; echo $?
0
$ git config alias.co; echo $?
checkout
0
I have $HOME/.gitconfig (where the alias comes from) and no system wide
configuration file.
Also the patch is mistitled. Whatever you are trying to say about the
current problem which I do not seem to get, and whatever different
behaviour from the current one you are trying to implement (which is not
quite clear from the above log message), it is not about making it more
flexible.
The patch text suggests you are trying to change the function's exit
status so the title would be "git-config: report errors correctly in its
exit status", but it is unspecified in your commit log message what
definition of "correctly" you are using in this patch.
