I think the added call to git_config_clear() I proposed yesterday in setup_git_directory_gently_1 should be part of this patch (with the associated comment), just like this call:

Oh, my bad, I thought you meant that I incorporate it with the git_config_raw() patch.
I wanted to ask, can we call setup_git_directory_gently() earlier in execv_dashed_external()
in git.c, which calls check_pager_config() for the first time which causes the
incomplete cache to formed.
If we can do it, we won't have to clear the cache every time setup_git_directory_gently_1()
is called.

I have limited access to my email and no way to apply the patches today, so I can't do a detailed review. But other than the remark above, I guess the patch series is now all right and ready to cook in pu.
