By the way, what is the formal structure of the config file? Perhaps
something like the notation used in RFC?

Is there an RFC for .INI format?

I don't think INI is standarized at all. The format of INI files is not 
well defined. That's why I'd like to know exact format of git INI-like 
config file format.

But what I meant was description of git config file in (used by RFCs)
augmented Backus-Naur Form (BNF) - RFC 4234.

Is it possible (and doesn't crash current git config parser) having

  [gitweb]
  	blame = yes
  	pickaxe = no
  	snapshot = bzip2

  [gitweb "committags"]
  	message-id = "http://news.gmane.org/find-root.php?message_id="
  	mantis = "http://bugs.or.cz/view.php?id="
  	url
  	sha1

in the config file?

If you are asking about [gitweb] stanza and (seemingly
overlapping) [gitweb "foo"] stanza, we already have prior
examples:

	[diff]
        	color = auto
        [diff "color"]
        	whitespace = blue reverse

so your example in the above would be legal (the dash in
'message-id' part might be questionable, though).

That's what I was asking for. Thanks for an explanation.
