My mistake: I was accidentally searching for the paragraph I added in config.txt instead of git-config.txt.

Is there something I should do to move this along? Are you asking about "might be something we want to fix up further", which I do not think anybody did (and you certainly didn't)?

The -c var=val given from the "git" command line is merely tacked at the end of the search order, so it would "override" when the variable is used as a single-valued variable, but when it is used as multi-valued one, it does not. That might be something we want to fix up further in later patches; the change we see in this patch is good regardless.
