Not in the bash completion. The test for the environment variable is
cheap, so you use that to enable the feature and can then use configs
to tweak them at a per-repo level. There is precedent with
GIT_PS1_SHOWDIRTYSTATE and bash.showDirtyState.
The comment above should state that this override only works if the
environment variable is also enabled, though.
