Are the below changes alright for what you propose? It just checks if
the length of core.commentchar's value is 1, otherwise use '#' as the
comment_line_char.
As a note, when I set core.commentchar with "git config
core.commentChar 'batata'", I get the following error message when I
issue "git add -i":

error: core.commentChar should only be one character
fatal: bad config variable 'core.commentchar' in file '.git/config' at line 6
