But if you read the original post carefully, all repositories involved are under /home before the transition, and they will move to the exact same place under /home anyway, so I do not think the discussion you have in mind would apply to this case. The only thing that is needed after the move would be to run git update-index --refresh in all of the repositories, I think.
