Exactly.  In the three words in DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM, I do not see
anything that indicates that the user wishes to use a "may be faster in
some situations but may be less correct" behaviour for one thing.  Also,
some day you or somebody else may find out how to take advantage of the
new code in this patch series and still stop at the filesystem boundary
and at that point, people may want to still forbid git to go up across
filesystem boundary and want to use the new prompt code.  Tying these two
independent concepts (i.e. "do I want to use the new experimental prompt
code?" and "do I want git to stop going up across fs boundaries?")
together only because the initial implementation happens to rely on it is
not such a good idea.
