Re: [PATCH RFC] init-db: introduce new -c/--config option

[Alexander Kuleshov <kuleshovmail@gmail.com>]

Hello All,

I'm not sure about two things:

1. Is there any way to do this with the current git? At least i didn't
find how to do it, so decided to write this patch.
If there is already ability to do the same without this patch, please
let me know.

2. Now current patch overwrite the value of the configuration option
from config,
if there is given option with the same key. For example, when we do git init,
.git/config contains core.filemode = true. If we will pass
core.filemode = false with this patch to git init,
there will be core.filemode = false in the .git/config. So, I'm not
sure about it.
I looked on git clone -c/--config, it just adds the same option to the
.git/config, but it looks strange to me....

So, I'm wating for any feedback.

Thank you.
