SUMMARY
With git, it is possible to have more configs for the same name. e.g.
Setting multiple values for the same name is currently not possible. Existing configs where multiple values for the same name are existing cannot be read out at all with the current
git_config
.This MR supports setting and reading multi-values in the git config.
