That interface looks good to me. It matches the --get-all/--get-regexp
options of git-config. It does not quite match --get-color, which is
really a type (like --bool or --int), but I think --get-color is the odd
one out there.

Yeah, that would be the ultimate goal. I think you would just need to
keep the same string_list there, with one urlmatch_item per key that we
care about.

It seems like some of the logic here should be reusable for http.c.
Should it be in config.c instead?

I think you ultimately want such a string_list for matching arbitrary
numbers of keys, but do you need it for the git-config case?

You will always be matching collect->key, so you will only ever insert a
single item into the collect->vars list. IOW, this could be:

  struct urlmatch_collect {
    struct url_info url;
    const char *section;
    const char *key;
    struct urlmatch_item match;
  };

I don't mind if it is more complicated than this single-case needs to be
if the code is also being used to http.c, but I haven't seen that yet
(and this code would not used as-is, as you would want to call the
function with many potential collect->key values, but without
re-normalizing the URL over and over).

And of course, it needs docs and tests. :) The latter can probably come
by converting some of the test-url-normalize tests to just use
git-config instead.
