I would say no, as the code and the string to translate would be much
less readable without core, user and email inline.

Were you suggesting stg like

_("# This is Git's user-wide configuration file.\n"
  "[%s]\n"
  "# Please, adapt and uncomment the following lines:\n"
  "#        %s = %s\n"
  "#        %s = %s\n"),
  "core", "name", ..., "email", ...

?

Indeed.
