So would accidentally running "rm -fr" there be catastrophic, too.
I doubt it would make much sense to file a feature request to Debian
or GNU/FSF to disable "rm -r" in certain directories. I am not sure
why "git clean" should be any different.
Commands like "git clean" require "-f" before they become overly
destructuve for a reason. clean.requireForce defaults to true for
the same reason.
