# Every write goes through git config, so the file keeps its comments, layout
# and quoting. --fixed-value makes a value a literal rather than a regex, so a
# write touches one value of a multi-valued key, and the `--` before the key
# keeps a leading dash an argument rather than an option.
#
# A write prints nothing on success. On failure it prints the reason on
# stdout, for the page, and exits 1.
