config: add `git_die_config()` to the config-set API
Add `git_die_config` that dies printing the line number and the file name of the highest priority value for the configuration variable `key`. A custom error message is also printed before dying, specified by the caller, which can be skipped if `err` argument is set to NULL. It has usage in non-callback based config value retrieval where we can raise an error and die if there is a semantic error. For example, if (!git_config_get_value(key, &value)){ if (!strcmp(value, "foo")) git_config_die(key, "value: `%s` is illegal", value); else /* do work */ } Signed-off-by: Tanay Abhra <tanayabh@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
