Hello,
I am not sure if this can be problem - at least it is proably not correct:
when adding a key to an empty section and deleting the key so that the section is empty again,
every add adds the section-name again - example:
git config gc.autoDetach false ; git config --unset gc.autoDetach ; cat config
[gc]
git config gc.autoDetach false ; git config --unset gc.autoDetach ; cat config
[gc]
[gc]
git config gc.autoDetach false ; git config --unset gc.autoDetach ; cat config
[gc]
[gc]
[gc]
Git-version is 2.17.0
Linux - Cent/OS: 2.6.32-754.10.1.el6.x86_64 - GNU/Linux
Greetings
Kurt

This was a known issue, but not a serious one, in the sense that it
didn't affect correctness of configuration parsing.
It was mostly fixed in v2.18.0.

I believe this was fixed by 4f4d0b42bae8 ("Merge branch
'js/empty-config-section-fix'", 2018-05-08) in git-2.18.0.
