Have you considered making ~/.gitconfig a directory?
Maybe Git wants to store more data later.

Maybe, porcelains would want to use this directory,
too.  Gitk, tig, maybe Cogito at some time.  One could
have the configuration of all these git-related tools
in a common namespace.

People like me, who work on a lot of different
machines, could simply sync this directory across
accounts and always work in their environment.
