I'd normally say "but *why* do you want to do that?" but I think it's
actually pretty clear in the diff based on the naming of the config
files (and clever - I like it). I do think pointing out that you're
breaking from existing style is useful since the existing style isn't
contained in the diff alone.

Make sure that if the value_regex misses existing keys, it can still add
normally.

Try to change the value of the config, but it's a multiconfig already.
Ok.

But /a+/ doesn't match any configs that already exist, so this one gets
added fine.

Get back the config before the last exercise (with just 'one').

And if the value_regex matches exactly one config, then replace that
one. I could see this case being a little bit more compelling if the
value_regex was doing some lifting, e.g.

abc.key=nil
abc.key=one

git config abc.key two o+

abc.key=nil
abc.key=two

This criteria was kind of implied in #2 in your commit message - does it
work?

Anyway, it's a pain, but I'd like to see either comments describing
which case each one is, or individual tests.
