Should I assume that the name/address on the last Signed-off-by: we
see below is what you want to be known as? As a part of school
work, I'd imagine that Matthieu wants your work to be associated
with the univ-lyon1.fr address, so perhaps you want to go the other
way around? It's not my place to decide between the two, but it is
unusual to see that the name/address of the author (which is the
above line) does not match what is on the Signed-off-by: line.

Does this reference to {tilde} get expanded inside the `literal`
mark-up? In the description for 'gitdir', we find this passage (in
Documentation/config.txt):
* If the pattern starts with `~/`, `~` will be substituted with the
content of the environment variable `HOME`.
So I'd expect `~` to be a safe way to get what you want, not `{tilde}`.
