Subject: Deprecate usage of git-var -l for getting config vars list
X-Git-Tag: v1.4.0-rc1~207^2~1

Deprecate usage of git-var -l for getting config vars list

This has been an unfortunate sideway in the git API evolution.
We use git-repo-config for all the other .git/config interaction
so let's also use git-repo-config -l for the variable listing.
