Even though the reason to replace a TODO with real stuff is rather
straigthforward, the reader appriates a short commit message (ideally
pointing to the commit introducing the TODO). My first thought reading
the patch was "wtf, is that a patch in the middle of a series, where
does this TODO come from" ;-).

Sounds good.

Do we really want to document this as part of the config API? i.e. does
a normal user of the API want to know about this? My understanding is
that git_config_set_multivar_in_file is essentially a private function,
and then the best place to document is with comments near the function
definition (it already has such comment).

Your text is easier to understand and more detailed, but I would
personnally prefer improving the in-code comment (possibly just leaving
a mention of git_config_set_multivar_in_file and pointing the reader to
the code for details).
