But it does! The problem is that _you_ are cheating it by removing the USB stick and mounting it somewhere else. Then you're using cogito which bypasses things. If you use pure git on the client machine, and actually use git-pull or git-fetch _without_ the -l switch then validation of the updated data will occur and there would be no way to muck up the destination repo.
