I meant orthogonal in two senses:
That given the current implementation you don't need to have both
options active at
the same time but can have them active at both times.
And that origin and scope correlate, but aren't necessarily
one-for-one. For example, --show-origin lists in a known order, but it follows
includes and lists the origin as the included file. so if you include a file
globally which has includeif "gitdir:..." directives then it can get hairy when
all your config files are structured like that.
Although, to be fair I doubt that that kind of situation is normal

Normally yes, but things can get complicating depending on your
configuration/include situation.
