1/3 is a more complete version of a patch I posted earlier [1]. It
makes sure that worktree.* config keys are stored in a different place
than $GIT_DIR/config. This allows us to work around the core.worktree
issue in multiple worktree setting.

I think 1/3 and 2/3 are fine. 3/3 is probably not. It's more of a
proof of concept. The tests pass, but there's no migration path for
existing submodules. Submodules modified by new Git will confuse old
Git because the old ones do not understand worktree.path (the
replacement for core.worktree)

Yeah, breaking every submodule cloned with v1.7.9 or newer is not

That's v1.7.8 of course ...

the way to go. You'd still have to support the old configuration
name for a very long time.

I wonder if it's worth all the hassle to invent new names. Wouldn't
it be much better to just keep a list of per-worktree configuration
value names and use that inside the config code to decide where to
find them for multiple work trees. That would also work easily for
stuff like EOL-config and would push the complexity in the config
machinery and not onto the user.
