If I’m not mistaken magit won’t stop working with the changed location since it will just spawn an new instance of the daemon. The only downside would be it wouldn’t get credentials that were cached in the default socket.

I am going to move forward with git-credential-cache just using the new location at `~/.cache/git/credential/socket` and submit a patch and then get more feedback on the patch.
