Your review comments are a subset of the ones Junio sent about 8 hours before you did, and are almost identical except for the comment on the subject line yours didn't have. I'm curious about two things.

1. Are you and Junio one same person, and if so what made you change your mind during these 8 hours ;-)?

2. Junio said "ef90d6d (Provide git_config with a callback-data parameter, 2008-05-14)" and yours is slightly different. Both are equally readable but I think it would help to make sure everybody uses the same format within one project. Do we need a helper command that everybody can use?
