Git for Windows v2.24.0-rc0 delayed a bit

Hi all,

I tried pretty hard yesterday to get a preview of Git for Windows out, based on v2.24.0-rc0, but I need a bit more time.

The PR at https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/2360 shows where I am going, and I started the automation based on it, but it failed (and I could not monkey patch it into succeeding).

The main issue is that I _really_ want to move the system config back where it was in the olden Git for Windows v1.x days: into `<Git>\etc\gitconfig` (in most cases, that would be `C:\Program Files\Git\etc\config`.

Alas, it is this move that is not _quite_ done yet, as the automation's failures indicate. For some reason, it cannot find the SSL certificates (which are configured as a path relative to the runtime prefix, so I guess that is what is going wrong somehow).

I need to take a break this weekend, and will continue working on -rc0 on Monday.

Ciao, Johannes
