I'm fine with this. At the moment, StGIT does extra checking before
some of the commands to ensure that HEAD is the same as the top of the
stack (i.e. no commits were generated outside stg commands). While
I'll probably still keep this check, the addition would be useful for
people mixing GIT and StGIT commands (I personally try to stay with
StGIT commands as much as possible).
