I would _definitely_ appreciate this feature. Firstly, thank you for
the addition of the environment variable. It is indeed much better
than the --no-guess flag.

However, I'm in a situation where I very much prefer the DWIM behavior
for nearly all of my repos. However, a very few repos have LOTS of
branches. And I only wish to disable DWIM in those few repos.

I attempted to create an alias (`git config alias.co 'checkout
--no-guess'`) in those specific repos. However, that turned out to be
foolish since I believe the alias parsing doesn't occur until _after_
the shell completion script runs (thus the --no-guess is not actually
present in the command parsed by the completion script).

So I'm back to very much wanting the ability to disable DWIM
repo-specific via git-config; and am willing to pay the git-config tax
as necessary.
