How can I exclude GIT in home directory?

[GasimGasimzada]

I have a .git directory in home directory with some commands in them. Since GIT also works for all subdirectories, any directory that I have in home directory will show the alchemy sign:

Is there a way that I can exclude this? I tried exclude_folders: ["~"] but it didn't work.

Interesting, as you could exclude the home folder (full path, not tilde) which works when you're actually inside $HOME, but not when you're deeper. My main question is why would you have a .git folder in your home folder? We could work around this by creating an exclude_repos property as that's the same when nested.

Do you think it would make sense to change the logic for GIT block to be based on actual GIT command check instead of checking the .git directory? Example pseudocode:

# If exit code is 0, it means there is a repo
if (git -C $CURRENT_PATH rev-parse) == 0 {
  show git block
}

@GasimGasimzada the easiest solution is to use exclude_folders here to validate if that root path should be skipped.

for the time being, I moved my my GIT commands to another directory but this change will allow me to revert back to my old workflow of storing GIT commands in ~/.git directory.
