Oh, I wouldn't like that at all. I think it would be a very ugly UI wart, because it would basically make Git behave differently than every other command line tool that accepts paths. If it is to deviate from the extremely widespread convention that paths starting with / refer to absolute paths rooted at the root of the filesystem, then the justification for it would need to be very strong indeed.

Cheers, Wincent
