/**
 * The config API gives callers a way to access Git configuration files
 * (and files which have the same syntax).
 *
 * General Usage
 * -------------
 *
 * Config files are parsed linearly, and each variable found is passed to a
 * caller-provided callback function. The callback function is responsible
 * for any actions to be taken on the config option, and is free to ignore
 * some options. It is not uncommon for the configuration to be parsed
 * several times during the run of a Git program, with different callbacks
 * picking out different variables useful to themselves.
