Isn't this the same, conceptually, as trying to remove the root directory, but from a Git perspective? i.e. Something along the lines of https://superuser.com/questions/542978/is-it-possible-to-remove-the-root-directory (their answer is 'no' without a special option, default since 2006) If I read the arguments correctly, Elijah is saying that Git shouldn't delete it's own root (cwd) directory, and that it is already implicit within the current Git code.
