Hi,

this is the second version of my patch series to provide a way of overriding the global system configuration.

Instead of going for GIT_CONFIG_NOGLOBAL, I've adopted Junio's proposal of going with GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL and GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM, which allow a user to modify the locations of those files. Thanks for the discussion, this solution feels a lot nicer to me!

  config: rename `git_etc_config()`
  config: unify code paths to get global config paths
  config: allow overriding of global and system configuration
