Sure, but we should come to a conclusion on "GITDIR" vs. "GIT_DIR" vs.
"gitdir" vs. "directory" vs. "ref". The reason I used "GITDIR" was to
keep the door open for additional parameters in the "gitfile" (but it
should obviously have been "GIT_DIR" for that usage since its value is
used to specify $GIT_DIR). If it's more likely that we'll use this as
a general substitute for symlinks, I think "ref" is better due to the
existing symbolic refs.

My preference would be "GIT_DIR" (or "git_dir") since we also might
want the "WORKDIR_HASH" Shawn mentioned.
