You can't. The reason is that get_config_bool() treats value == NULL and
*value == '\0' differently. *That's* the most unfortunate part of it. :-(

You are right. We have this (in config.c:299):

int git_config_bool(const char *name, const char *value)
{
	if (!value)
		return 1;
	if (!*value)
		return 0;
	if (!strcasecmp(value, "true") || !strcasecmp(value, "yes"))
		return 1;
	if (!strcasecmp(value, "false") || !strcasecmp(value, "no"))
		return 0;
	return git_config_int(name, value) != 0;
}

Very unfortunate.

I finally had the following patch that passed all tests (it changed only one 
test), in case someone wants to suggest that we change git_config_bool, 
hint, hint!

Thanks,
Christian.
