 Replying to [comment:16 TimothyBlynJacobs]:

 installed on dev sites is any easier

 Indeed it is easier, and not susceptible to user error: a lot of WordPress
 sites commit only the `wp-content` directory, which contains the `mu-
 plugin` directory, so any checkout is going to have the mu-plugin which
 dictates the environment type.

 > For this type of site, I think you'd be better off tracking the whole
 thing in git and having a wp-config-partial.php that defines the
 environment type by default.

 This doesn't work, because some local WordPress environment creators (like
 Local WP) define `wp-config.php` at environment creation, and so would
 still need manual intervention.
