Might be niche but for me - I have config files outside $HOME, I use a number of `.gitignore`-aware tools (tree, fuzzy finder), and I just don't like `git status` telling me I'm in a repo in any subdir of $HOME.

That's why I use --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles

I rename .git directory to .dotfiles in my $HOME
