This part we have never discussed in the thread, I think. Why do
you need to override, instead of having these in the repository's
config files?
Is it because a repository may host multiple pseudo repositories in
the form of "namespaces" but they must share the same config file,
and you would want to customize per "namespace"?
For that we may want to enhance the [include] mechanism. Something
like
[include "namespace=foo"]
path = /path/to/foo/specific/config.txt
[include "namespace=bar"]
path = /path/to/bar/specific/config.txt
Cc'ing Peff as we have discussed this kind of conditional inclusion
in the past...
