sure in UNIX env., you can easily shoot yourself in the foot. but it'd
might be nice to help newbies.

It's amusing to see that people can find obscure ways to shoot
themselves in the foot.

Amusing problems deserve an equally amusing solution.

I guess you are not serious.  I wonder, why does git-ls-files ever list files under .git?  I'd just say:  fail if you want to list $GIT_DIR.  Maybe other tools should do so as well.

% cd .hg && hg status -A .
abort: path contains illegal component: .hg

I think this is a sensible thing to do.
