I’m not sure.  I know I like it. :-)

I was the only one with nitpicks about the wording (sorry).  Re
whether to use configuration file syntax or a 'git config' command
line snippet, it seemed like there was some consensus once it was
clear that the user would have to modify the lines anyway to fill in
the right values.  But others can speak up if this seems wrong.

Hope that helps,
