Re: [PATCH 1/2] clone: respect the settings in $HOME/.gitconfig and /etc/gitconfig

Daniel Barkalow [off-list ref] writes:

There's no need to use the environment variable to direct the generation 
of the config file in the C version of clone, and having it not defined 
means that global and per-user configuration is available. This is 
necessary for the fetching portion, and could be useful someday for the 
init portion as well. It is unlikely that the user would want the 
repository's configuration in some non-default location, but no less 
likely than with any other git command besides "git config".

Thanks, will queue together with the earlier [2/2] from Dscho.

Can we have updates to the testsuite as well?  We would probably have to
fudge $HOME and have some entries in $HOME/.gitconfig to simulate the
situation that triggered the original discussion.
