I still think separate gbp.conf could clarify things. I was thinking
something along line:
NAME
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
<Explain the file syntax. What the SECTION names are:
a special "DEFAULT", then according to each COMMAND.
Explain that key=value pairs is COMMAND sections are
derived from each command's options. Explain comment
marker '#' etc.>
[section name]
<option> = value
Special notes... like, that "filter"option can be
defined in multiple ways To cumulatively add more
excludes:
filter = .svn
filter = .bzr
Or use the Python way:
filter = [ '.svn', '.bzr' ]
EXAMPLES
<Present a typical gbp.conf file>
