I don't plan to remove .git/config annex.numcopies support. It is 5 lines of code.
A fundamental problem with the .git/config annex.numcopies setting is that it can be inconsistently set between repositories. Therefore, there is no worse potential with interoperability if you use differing versions of git-annex that support and do not support the new global numcopies setting. If this was a concern though, you can use .gitattributes to set annex.numcopies for *, which all recent versions of git-annex support.
The old git/config annex.numcopies setting is overridden as soon as you use `git annex numcopies`. In turn `git annex numcopies` is overridden by any relevant .gitattributes annex.numcopies setting. This is documented on the man page.
