Re: GIT_ONE_FILESYSTEM inclusion?

From Alex Riesen [off-list ref], Wed, Mar 24, 2010 at 12:37:39PM +0100:

Isn't it a little pointless to look for repository when you can't
access its config?

If you're doing the trendy thing of putting repository information in
your shell prompt, then your prompt is looking for a repository every
time you change a directory.

As for making this a command-line option: that's certainly doable, but
it makes it harder to enforce the option's use across an organization.
It's far easier for me to set an environment variable centrally on a
thousand workstations than to convince a potentially large number of
users to set a new shell alias for git.
