Re: Minor bug: git config ignores empty sections

So a comment outside [section "name"] is tricky; it needs some
mechanism (or convention) to tell us if it is about the particular
section, or it is about the location in the configuration file.

Keep in mind that even "outside" is hard, because sections do not
explicitly close.

Yes, that was what I wanted to say.  We'd be deep in the
"convention" territory.
