If I'm working on multiple directories  on the same machine, I have
libflcow in my LD_PRELOAD and use cp -al (GNU-specific) to make hardlink
images of my working directory.  I've been using fl-cow with cp -al
since long before I used git.

The new-ish git-new-workdir command could probably be a replacement
for git-clone / flcow + cp -al / rsync in these situations as well.
