config: reject bogus section names for --rename-section
You can feed junk to "git config --rename-section", which will result in a config file that git will not even parse (so you cannot fix it with git-config). We already have syntactic sanity checks when setting a variable; let's do the same for section names. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
