Sorry for being terse. What I would prefer is no change to C files except what is minimally needed to adding 'git-config' as an alias to 'git-repo-config', plus s/repo-config/config/g in the Documentation.

For Porcelains and test scripts shipped with git, replace 'repo-config' to 'config' only for actual strings used as command names to be invoked, to play it safe (renaming a variable 'repo_config' to 'config' needs to be done and verified carefully as there may already be an existing variable 'config', for example).
