I recall seeing a similar idea with a bit better syntax discussed when we talked about path-type values in the configuration system, where we use "~WORD~/" prefix to expand to Git specific special places in the filesystem, just like "~USER/" prefix expands to the home directory of the user. E.g. "~gitdir~/config" may expand to point at the per-repository configuration file in the current repository, and "~worktree~/Makefile" may be the top-level Makefile checked out in the current worktree. This depends on the fact that nobody sane has username ending with tilde (and if there is such a user, tough luck for that user). I'm tempted to credit Dscho for the idea but it could have been by J6t. Does anybody have a pointer to the discussion thread?
