zsh's vcs_info does read files in those directories in order to
determine which patches have been applied.  I just submitted a patch to
zsh that fixed warnings when a conflict occurred with git rebase -m.

I expect that unless we provide a programmatic way to discover all of
that information trivially (and maybe even then, due to compatibility
with older versions of git), people are going to poke around those
directories.
