Re: [PATCH] emacs: make 'git-status' work with separate git dirs

when trying 'M-x git-status' in a submodule created with recent (1.7.5+)
git, the command fails with

| ... is not a git working tree

This is caused by creating submodules with '--separate-git-dir' but
still checking for a working tree by testing for a '.git' directory.

The patch fixes this by relaxing the existing detection a little bit.

This script already relies on the assumption that nobody sane would
create a directory named ".git" that is not a git repository, and
this loosens the assumption that nobody would create a file named
".git", either.  So I would think it is a sane thing to do, but just
in case if the area expert has better ideas, I am forwarding it.

Ack?

Sure, that's fine.
