> not-totally-unreasonable workflows that do clones as root Uh... really? Like what?

  etckeeper and friends (I have a git checkout in /etc/nixos on nixos machines), portage sync on funtoo, pulling ports tree or even system source on a BSD, grabbing setup scripts during install of Arch before a non-root user exists

    So, basically workflows where the cloned code gets run as root without further inspection anyways.
