D'oh, now I know why. I'm trying git to keep my home directory config
stuff versioned, so GIT-VERSION-GEN, failing to find a .git directory
in my tar export, digs down and finds my home directory one instead.
I take it this means that keeping your home directory under git
/directly/ as I have chosen to do is a bad idea...
