Yes.  It all depends on the answer to this question: Is it
reasonably expected that any half-way intelligent Git user would not
be surprised to learn that "sudo sudo git status" would be a way to
work on a repository that is owned by root as root?  Given that
"sudo git status" is a good way to work on a repository that is
owned by you as root, perhaps the answer is yes, but I am not
a representative sample ;-)

If the answer is yes, then we would want to make sure it will
continue to work by having a test to protect it from future
breakage.  If not, and "sudo sudo git" (or worse "sudo sudo sudo
git") is something that would be imagined by the most wicked mind
and no sane person would imagine it would be a way to achieve
something useful, no, it does not have to be protected from any
future breakage.

So...
