Obviously, but that seems disingenuous when you're inside the git dir. 
"HEAD" is supposed to reflect the name of the currently checked-out 
branch, and so it is tied to a working directory. I'm not sure why it's 
useful to show $GIT_DIR/HEAD in PS1 while inside .git as it invites 
operations that probably should not be done while within the bare repo.
