Hello,

‘vc-git-root’ as found in Emacs 24.2.1 is too lax: when called from a
non-Git directory under $HOME, it ends up returning ~/ because users
normally have a ~/.git directory holding a config file.

A better definition would be something like this:

Thanks,
Ludo’.

I did, but now I realize that ~/.gitconfig is what matters nowadays (or
maybe ~/.git/config never mattered, even.)

Sorry for the noise.
