Re: [RFC PATCH 0/2] Conditional config includes based on remote URL

Previously [1], I sent a patch set for remote-suggested configs that are
transmitted when fetching, but there were some security concerns. Here
is another way that remote repo administators can provide recommended
configs - through conditionally included files based on the configured
remote. Git itself neither transmits nor prompts for these files, which
hopefully reduces people's concerns.

More information is in the commit message of patch 2.

I won't go into the details of the patches, since I'm a little low on
time at the moment, but I think from what I've seen of the cover letter
and the commit messages, this approach is much better from a security
perspective and, provided we can get the kinks mentioned downthread
ironed out, I'd be happy to see this merged.
