Hi,
We could warn the user if a .git dir is detected during walk and pop up a message like: “hey you are advised to not do that, check the link for more info”. I think it makes sense because it’s a common user mistake.
I think it’s a bad idea because:
- Some people know what they are doing and it’s ok in those cases.
- You’d emit the warning on every walk, which for people who know what they are doing would be annoying, so you’d have to add a flag to disable it.
- This makes a precedent, next thing you know we’d have to warn about *.wal, and have a flag for that too, turning the config into united nations front driveway (full of flags…)
