I triggered this BUG today while playing around. Here's a minimal
reproduction:

  echo '[broken' >config
  git config --file=config a.b c

I'm not sure if it should simply be a die() and not a BUG(), since
it depends on the input. Or if it is a BUG and we expected an earlier
part of the code (like the event generator) to catch this broken case
before we get to this function.
