I think you need to keep "refs" directory back somehow. Without it
(e.g. "git init --ref-storage=lmdb" does not create "refs"),
is_git_directory() from _old_ git versions fails to recognize this is
a good repository. So instead of dying on finding an unsupported
repository, setup code keeps on looking for another repository in
parent directories. If I accidentally run "git add something" with an
old binary, "something" could be added to a wrong repository. Very
confusing.
