How are they becoming root? If they are using sudo you could forbid

you can get away with some trivial thing like putting 'alias
git=/bin/false' in /root/.bashrc - or some wrapper which does
something helpful rather than silently fail :-).

Thanks for dropping the hint on wrapper.

I've implemented one that give the user a friendly reminder
that they are running git as root and ask whether to continue.

nazri.
