Two minor nits and one design suggestion:
- Why rstrip() not strip()? It appears that this only is helping
an end-user "mistake" like this:
git config remote-bzr.branches 'trunk, devel, test '
without helping people who have done this:
git config remote-bzr.branches 'trunk, devel, test'
- Is
git config remote-bzr.branches trunk,devel,test
a grave sin?
In other words, wouldn't we want something like this instead?
map(lambda s: s.strip(), get_config('...').split(',')) - Doesn't allowing multi-valued variable, e.g.
[remote-bzr]
branches = trunk
branches = devel
branches = test make it easier for the user to manage this configuration by
e.g. selectively removing or adding tracked branches?
