Could you please also think if it is worth mentioning what happens when
you do not even have a top-level directory? I.e. in a bare repository.
Yes I thought about it. I decided not to add that because
it is:
- not common enough (how many new users fiddle in bare
repos?)
I do that quite a lot, but I can't recall ever using an alias
in a bare repo. It would be odd if I did, as the only alias I've
got is this:
alias.wsfix=!git diff HEAD >P.diff && git reset --hard HEAD && git apply --whitespace=fix P.diff && rm -f P.diff
which isn't always doing the right thing even in a non-bare
repository, and never in a bare one.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
