This technique has worked amazingly well! New git seems to have some issues though... Running 1.7.6.4:

$ dotgit pull
fatal: /usr/libexec/git-core/git-pull cannot be used without a working tree.
$ dotgit stash
fatal: /usr/libexec/git-core/git-stash cannot be used without a working tree.
$ dotgit stash --work-tree=/home/bronson
fatal: /usr/libexec/git-core/git-stash cannot be used without a working tree.

(I call the command dotgit... my fingers couldn't get used to .git)

I haven't looked at the code or regressed it yet... I'll report back if/when I do.
