Changes in v2:
 * Fix a small nit in builtin/config.c that Jonathan pointed out.
 * Added two patches which ensure that the repository wide config is properly
   read by providing 'commondir' as a field in the 'config_options' struct.
Brandon Williams (6):
  config: create config.h
  config: remove git_config_iter
  config: don't include config.h by default
  config: don't implicitly use gitdir
  setup: teach discover_git_directory to respect the commondir
  config: respect commondir
