That already exists, git-config(1), look for "Conditional includes"
That way you can do it per top level folder or whatever makes sense for
you.

Examples:

; include for all repositories inside /path/to/group
[includeIf "gitdir:/path/to/group/"]
	   path = /path/to/foo.inc

; include for all repositories inside $HOME/to/group
[includeIf "gitdir:~/to/group/"]
	   path = /path/to/foo.inc
