tpope/vim-fugitive — Issue #147: Follow symlinks (and act on the target repository)

If I edit ~/.pentadactylrc (not in Git) which is a symlink into ~/.dotfiles/pentadactylrc (in Git) I would like `:Gcommit` et al to work on it, too.

This should be possible if fugitive would follow symlinks and recognize that the file itself is located in a git repository and add appropriate parameters to invocations of git, i.e. '--git-dir'.
