I track /etc using a config

	logAllRefUpdates = true
	excludesfile =

git gui : cannot use funny .git directory .

If someone sends patches for git-gui, maybe.  This use case of
different repository and worktree isn't very common for git-gui
so it doesn't support it.

I came across the same problem. I also sent a tentative patchset to
solve the problem about 12 hours ago:
