Hm, I don't find the old or the new version very easy to understand.  Perhaps the
idea is something like this?

	Check if <path> is a valid git repository (.git or <project>.git
	directory) or "gitdir:" file.  If <path> is a "gitdir:" file
	then the resolved path to the corresponding real git repository
	will be printed.
