This turned out to be a very tiny amount of code, but I found a ton
of other bugs while working on it. :)
So the patch series is long, but the important bits are at the end. I
factored the code from the existing "git -c", so most of the bugfixes
are there.
[01/10]: strbuf_split: add a max parameter
[02/10]: fix "git -c" parsing of values with equals signs
These two are the first bugfix.
[03/10]: config: die on error in command-line config
Another bugfix.
[04/10]: config: avoid segfault when parsing command-line config
Another bugfix.
[05/10]: strbuf: allow strbuf_split to work on non-strbufs
[06/10]: config: use strbuf_split_str instead of a temporary strbuf
Plugging a memory leak.
[07/10]: parse-options: add OPT_STRING_LIST helper
[08/10]: remote: use new OPT_STRING_LIST
[09/10]: config: make git_config_parse_parameter a public function
These are refactoring for 10/10.
[10/10]: clone: accept config options on the command line
And this is the actual patch.
