Re: Should 'git config' support key with dot such as 'a.b'

From: Xavier Maillard <hidden>

   I think the following form is more simple
   ---------------------------------
   [submodule]
	crawler.url = url1
	search.url = url2
   ---------------------------------

   So, could we support such simpler form?

Dunno if my vote will count but I really don't like your
proposition. I find clearer with the current notation. What's
more it forces people to be more rigorous when touching their
configuration file.

git config is really simple to use and there should not be
difficult for anybody (even new git users) to set up git using
this helper tool. We should not recommend beginners to manually
edit their .git/config file when git-config could be used.
