I see.

At first, it seemed like it would be useful to know if the working 
directory was dirty even when you're within .git. However, I guess 
that's problematic when your working tree is in some completely 
unpredictable location. It's probably a bad idea to assume that work-tree=..

So you're right... there's a logical problem with having showDirtyState 
turned on when within .git. It should be disabled there.

So I'll check for "git rev-parse --is-inside-git-dir" and disable 
showDirtyState appropriately.
