The file .git/config can be added to and removed from though automation, but does support comments.

Using git bug in a repo stomps on the file, rewriting it and losing comments, blank lines, etc.

Observed behavior

1. Add a comment to a repo's .git/config
2. Run git bug bridge pull
3. Look at .git/config and see the comment has gone

Desired behavior:

1. comments preserved, everything outside of the git-bug area preserved
2. git bug doesn't edit the config at all unless it needs to, rather than on every operation

Affirmed behavior still present in current HEAD:

git-bug version: v0.8.0-dev-55e4046b4b
