I think that is very much in line with "git config --get" works, and "--get-urlmatch" being an enhancement of "--get", I would expect that "--get-urlmatch" to follow the usual "the last one wins" rule.

If you want to see _all_ values for a multi-valued variable, you would say "git config --get-all". IIUC, there currently is no "--get-all-urlmatch", but there may need one. I dunno.
