Hmm, this doesn't quite fit with the intended use of this
function! ;-) (even on windows!)
I haven't looked very deeply, but doesn't this affect all
absolute paths in the config read by git_config_pathname(),
along with all 'included config' files?
I am pretty sure that I would not want the absolute paths
in my config file(s) magically 'moved' depending on whether
git has been compiled with 'runtime prefix' support or not!
ATB,
