Alternatively, you could extend the recent proposal for GIT config
"include" statements so that something like this works:
[include]
exec = echo "deploy.prefix = `cat /etc/SERVER_ROLE`"
exec = /usr/local/bin/git-config-for-ldap-user
Erh...
Running known stuff from your own .git/config may be justifiable as "at
your own risk", but if we consider sources that are not under your direct
control, such as /etc/gitconfig and whatever your project encourages you
to include from your .git/config,... eek.
