It's in master and should be in 1.6.1, but it is a config option that defaults to "warn" for now, so as not to break existing setups. It may switch to "refuse" after a deprecation period, but I don't think the length of that period has been set. > Since I knew the patch was coming I rewrote my scripts to use a bare > repo in /var/git, and push the changes to /var/www whenever I push to > the remote repo.
