This seems redundant — not setting cmd.Stderr has the same effect, no?

Instead of dealing with the buffer manually, use cmd.Output() instead of cmd.Run() below.

We don’t have the ErrNotFound type, so just return err here

Yes, I will. Per git-config manpage, it "allows for secure parsing of the output without getting confused e.g. by values that contain line breaks." Thank you!
