(1/8) is Matthieu's translation patch.\n\tgit_die_config_linenr() helper function added. Diff between v6\n\tand v7 appended for review.\n\n[Patch v6]: Added _(....) to error messages.\n\tDiff between v6 and v4 at the bottom.\n\n[PATCH v5]: New patch added (3/7). git_config() now returns void.\n\n[PATCH v4]: One style nit corrected, also added key to error messages.\n\n[PATCH V3]:All the suggestions in [3] applied. Built on top of [1].\n\n[PATCH V2]: All the suggestions in [2] incorporated. git_config() now follows\n\tcorrect parsing order. Reordered the patches. Removed xfuncname patch\n\tas it was unnecssary.\n\nThis series builds on the top of topic[1] in the mailing list with name\n\"git config cache & special querying API utilizing the cache\" or (ta/config-set in pu).\n\nThis series aims to do these three things,\n\n* Use the config-set API to rewrite git_config().\n\n* Solve any legacy bugs in the previous system while at it.\n\n* To be feature complete compared to the previous git_config() implementation,\n\twhich I think it is now. (added the line number and file name info just for\n\tcompleteness)\n\nAlso, I haven't yet checked the exact improvements but still as a teaser,\ngit status now only rereads the configuration files twice instead of four\ntimes.\n\n[1]: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/254286\n[2]: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/254101\n[3]:
