Subject: StGIT and repo-config

I'm trying to get StGIT to work with git's config information.
Currently, the stgit.config stuff uses a generic ConfigParser, which
I'm not sure is adequate for the work:

- it requires to forge section names like 'branch "foo"'
- it is only a reader and I'm not sure it is easy to turn it to a
writer.  It has a set() method, but it appears to only act on
in-memory stuff.
- since it parses the file at startup, it would not see any change
done from stgit by calling repo-config.
- the canonical way to access the info is git-repo-config.

I'd think this would be sufficient to rewrite stgit.config.
No objection ?

Best regards,
