The value given will override values from configuration files. The is expected in the same format as listed by git config (subkeys separated by dots). Note that omitting the = in git -c foo.bar ... is allowed and sets foo.bar to the boolean true value (just like [foo]bar would in a config file). Including the equals but with an empty value (like git -c foo.bar= ...) sets foo.bar to the empty string which git config --bool will convert to false.
