I probably wasn't clear enough in the commit message, but this is what
happens when I set clone.submoduleGitDir to ~/bare: a git clone
gh:artagnon/clayoven inside the superproject's worktree will make
~/bare/clayoven.git and ./clayoven corresponding to the GITDIR and the
worktree of the newly cloned repository.  If there are conflicts, it
will complain as usual saying that the destination path %s already
exists, in which case the user has to choose a name for the GITDIR
(not yet implemented) and/or the worktree path (as the final
command-line argument to git clone).
