Instead of making your own true/false parser you can use
git_parse_maybe_bool(). See what we do for merge.ff:

    builtin/merge.c-617-    else if (!strcmp(k, "merge.ff")) {
    builtin/merge.c:618:            int boolval = git_parse_maybe_bool(v);
    builtin/merge.c-619-            if (0 <= boolval) {
    builtin/merge.c-620-                    fast_forward = boolval ? FF_ALLOW : 
FF_NO;
    builtin/merge.c-621-            } else if (v && !strcmp(v, "only")) {
    builtin/merge.c-622-                    fast_forward = FF_ONLY;
    builtin/merge.c-623-            } /* do not barf on values from future 
versions of git */
    builtin/merge.c-624-            return 0;

Small nit, but allows us to document "this config takse bool or ..."
without having different verions of "bool" in various places.

Also, I don't care personally, but this also violates the "if one thing
requires braces put it on all the if/else arms" in CodingGuidelines.
