Subject: [PATCH 1/3] git-p4: Teach gitConfig method about arguments.

From: Tor Arvid Lund <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 15 Mar 2011 13:08:01 +0100

With this patch, it is possible to call the gitConfig method with an optional
argument string, which will be passed to the "git config" executable. For
instance:

gitConfig("core.ignorecase", "--bool")

will ensure that you get the value "true", and won't have to check the returned
value for [1, true, on, yes].
