[I have not been following this series at all (sorry I haven't had
the time to spare), so take these comments with a very big pinch of
salt! ie just ignore me if it's already been discussed etc. ;-) ]

The 'git config' command can be used to read arbitrary files (so long
as they conform to the config syntax). For example, see the --file and
--blob options to git-config. At present, I think only scripted commands
use this facility (eg git-submodule). Noting the singleton config_cache,
what happens when git-submodule becomes a C builtin, or indeed any other
C builtin wants to take advantage of the new code when processing a non-
standard config file?
