Unfortunately, the amusing ;-) solution doesn't prevent them all.

$ cd .git/objects
$ git ls-fiels -o
0f/902e4635d4d7b8e532b485eeeb6399d0910710

$ git clean -d -x

I presume that if the cwd is the direct decedent of the current
GIT_DIR, ls-files should print error saying "you are not in the
working dir".

or, just ignore '.git/*' all the time.

$ git ls-files -o
HEAD
config
 :
$ git ls-files -o --exclude='.git/*'
$ 

What do you think?
