Ok, that's definitely a git misfeature. I think we could probably add a check something like: - once we have found a .git directory by walking up the tree, the directory we actually came _from_ should then be tracked by that git directory. but I wonder how to do that properly (we would probably need to load the index, which we generally don't want to do).
