[PATCH] t1300: attempting to remove a non-existent .git/config is not an error

From: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org>

Since some tests before test number 79 ("quoting") are skipped, .git/config does not exist and 'rm .git/config' fails. Fix this particular case.

While at it, move other instance of 'rm .git/config' that occur in this file inside the test function to document that the test cases want to protect themselves from remnants of earlier tests.

 You may think that the justification of this change would be the
 other way round: protect test cases, then incidentally this fixes
 a failure on Windows. But for me it is as described: The motivation
 is the fix for Windows, and without that, the "protect test cases"
 part would not have happened. :-)
