But if others disagree, I could be convinced to add support for that.

If M/.git weren't a gitfile that points elsewhere, that request
ought to work, no?  A gitfile is the moral equilvalent of a symbolic
link, meant to help people on platforms and filesystems that lack
symbolic links, so in that sense, not supporting the case goes
against the whole reason why we have added support for gitfile in
the first place, I think.

OK, I'm convinced.  I'll modify it to support that as well.
