It seems as though you're saying that any fixes or changes in this area
would be incomplete without moving us towards the most pedantic and
minimalist interpretation possible when doing a "git init", is that
right?
Not at all.  Belt and suspenders is a good way forward.  I am just
saying that on-demand creation is more important than the other one.
So you do agree that we should create .git/info whatever the template
says (as this series does), or not?
Probably "should" is too strong a word.  

I do not mind "mkdir -p" existing, but I think it is more important
to spend our engineering effort to make sure there are necessary
on-demand creation of leading paths.
