No, case shouldn't matter.  I'm noticing the it looks like

        foo.bar=baz

instead of

        [foo]
                bar = baz

(i.e. it seems to be some syntax other than ini syntax).  E.g. I tried

        echo a.b=c >test.config
        git config -f test.config -l

and get

        fatal: bad config line 1 in file test.config

Thanks,
Jonathan
