Thanks for the patch!

The only thing that was not clear to me from the patch and from the commit
message was: the first part *is* case insensitive, right? How does the
patch take care of that? Is it relying on `git_config_parse_key()` to do
that? If so, I don't see it...

Agreed. I seem to remember that I had a funny problem "in the reverse",
where http.<url>.* is case-sensitive, but in an unexpected way: if the URL
contains upper-case characters, the <url> part of the config key needs to
be downcased, otherwise the setting won't be picked up.

Ciao,
Dscho
