TOML. Easy on the eyes and easy to grep and filter out comments.

I really like the way Fail2Ban handles it with a .local config. The default doesn't need to be backed up, and the .local is most minimal and concise. I'm unaware of any other programs doing it that way. I have scripts that either execute sed or tee -a to config files, after making a backup copy of the original.
