One's gotta wonder how that's ever a valid directory setup...

Although I'm running a configuration of:

  root/proj.git                        <-- a real repo
  root/proj.git/info/new-commit-check  <-- a fake repo

where new-commit-check has root/proj.git not only as an alternate
ODB but also has root/proj.git/refs symlinked into its own refs
directory.
