What should happen if I pass --reference=M/.git?
That isn't supported and I wouldn't expect it to work. The --reference
option is documented as taking the location of a repository as the
argument and I wouldn't consider a .git file to be a repository. I also
can't think of a reason that it would be very useful since it should be
simple to just refer to the directory containing the .git file. But if
others disagree, I could be convinced to add support for that.
I also wouldn't consider it breakage if that use would start working, so
I don't see a point in adding a test to check that that usage fails.

Fixed for the next version, pending further comments.
