+@yarikoptic oh, `git-annex test` does prevent global gitconfig from
+influeencing the tests. So your matrix test won't work if you're
+running `git-annex test` in it. If you're running other git-annex commands
+in datalad's test suite, it would work though.
+
+I've opened [[todo/specify_gitconfig_for_test_suite]].

+`git-annex test` prevents ~/.gitconfig or /etc/gitconfig from being read.
+
+It would sometimes be useful to test git-annex with a given git config set.
+Although some might break the test suite, others might expose actual bugs
+in git-annex. --[[Joey]]
