Per-repository configuration file like .git/info/config sounds
like the way to go.  Long time ago, the core never read any
per-repository nor per-odb configuration file, but after grafts
and then now alternates, we started doing it, and there is no
reason to shy away from having an official configuration file
mechanism.  Maybe recent HTTP related environment variables
could also be folded into it.

While we are at it, we may want to move things around to
consolidate per-repository configuration into a single placek.
Specifically, I have moving .git/remotes/ in mind.
