Should this really trigger for GIT_ONE_FILESYSTEM=0? We already have
git_env_bool, which will handle 0/1, true/false, etc. Probably you
should use it here.

I am not a big fan of the environment variable name, either, but I don't
have another good suggestion. It is closely related to
GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES (in fact, you could probably solve the same
problem with GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES, but I think your solution is much
nicer in that it lets the user get away with being less verbose).

I agree with Sverre that this message isn't descriptive enough, but I
like the suggestion you posted elsewhere in the thread.
