I agree that treat_directory is called many times, but this
real_pathdup() call is inside the "if (nested_repo)" block, so this
new real_pathdup() invocation should occur very seldom.  Or are you
worried about cases where users have *very* large numbers of bare
repositories nested under the working directory?  Even in that case,
which seems pathological to me, I'd suspect the
is_nonbare_repository_dir() ->
read_gitfile_gently()/is_git_directory() codepath (used to determine
the value of nested_repo) would be much more expensive than this call
to real_pathdup(), so would it be worth trying to optimize this
real_pathdup() call away even in that rare case?
