Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 22
Component/s: Userspace
On multi-user machines, Git users might find themselves unexpectedly in a Git worktree, e.g. when there is a scratch space (`/scratch/`) intended for all users and another user created a repository in /scratch/.git`.
Merely having a Git-aware prompt that runs `git status` (or `git diff`) and navigating to a directory which is supposedly not a Git worktree, or opening such a directory in an editor or IDE such as VS Code or Atom, will potentially run commands defined by that other user via `/scratch/.git/config`.
