I really second this. Plus, I think its crucial to check that we are
not inside the .git directory before setting up topgit. Because git
rev-parse --git-dir only works in the top .git dir, not deeper (i.e.
inside .git/refs) and will always return ".".

	$(git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree) ||
		die "Not in a git working directory"
