git-config v0.13.0

on GitHub

New Features

• SectionMut::push_with_comment(key, comment) to add a new variable with a comment.
  This is useful for providing more information about a value at hand, especially if it was
  added programmatically and then shows up in the configuration.

• Add the Source::EnvOverride to have a place for 'terminal' overrides.
  That way environment variables represented via git-configuration
  can be integrated into git configuration, making clearer what's
  going to happen even when looking at the configuration via
  gix config.

  The implementation has to be careful though about assureing there
  is no more specific configuration key, like http.<URL>.proxy that
  would override the one from the environment, which always has
  the final word.

• comfort API like string_by_key(key) takes a key like "remote.origin.url", add section_by_key("remote.origin") as well.
  That way it's the most comfortable way to query values and very
  similar to how git does it, too.

  Additionally, sections can be obtained by section key, both mutably and immutably for completeness.

New Features (BREAKING)

• File::new_section() and related now returns their id as well.
  That way it's possible to more easily interact with it later, for instance
  when one wants to delete it.

Bug Fixes (BREAKING)

• subsections are identified as &BStr in entire API.
  Technically they can be any value (except for newlines and unescaped double quotes),
  and these values might be paths and everything that comes with it, like
  illformed UTF8. In order to be able to represent everything that
  git can represent, we don't enforce UTF8 anymore for subsection names.

  Note that section names and key names are required to be valid UTF8
  (and even alphanumeric ascii), which makes illformed UTF8 very unlikely
  there.
