Indenting using <<- would make it easier to read. I.e.
cat >config.branch <<-\EOF &&
;; Comment for ...
[branch "source"]
;; Comment for ...
...

Where does 9001 come from? Is that just "an arbitrary large
number"?
Besides, "grep -A" is quite unportable. Would
sed -n -e "/Comment for source/,$p" .git/config >actual
work equally well?
