This seems to be sufficient justification for it. A destructive action
(such as migrating configuration from one location to another, as you
have implemented in the patch below) should be something that the user
opts into, rather than having happen automatically.

This sounds quite useful for these situations.

Good, this matches my expectation from above.

I feel like we're getting into "let's extract a function" territory,
here, since this line is growing in width. Perhaps:
static int config_files_count()
{
return use_global_config + use_system_config + use_local_config +
use_worktree_config +
!!given_config_source.file +
!!given_config_source.blob;
}
Simplifying the call to:

This cmp_config seems generally useful, perhaps beyond t2029. What do
you think about putting it in t/test-lib-functions.sh instead?
