Proof of concept:

export GIT_WORK_TREE=.

git --git-dir=.git1 init
git --git-dir=.git1 add view1-file
git --git-dir=.git1 commit -m"view1 initial"

git --git-dir=.git2 init
git --git-dir=.git2 add view1-file
git --git-dir=.git2 commit -m"view2 initial"

git --git-dir=.git1 log
git --git-dir=.git2 log
