right.  .git should be forbidden in higher layers already.

That's where I disagree. git-clean shouldn't clean it, but
git-ls-files will do no harm to the directory

doesn't work either:

% cd .git/hooks
% git add *
fatal: unable to add .git/hooks/applypatch-msg to index

cd .git
git init
git add .
git commit

Works. And the path contains .git component. And git-clean
here is ok. The test should check if we are in $GIT_DIR
and probably $GIT_DIR/{objects,refs,logs}, not just below
.git (with ".git" anywhere in pwd, which the mercurial
example seem to suggest).
