Those that have some git status information in their shell prompts should probably make sure they are not bitten by the same git issues. I currently have to following (zsh syntax) setup for that:

   git=(git -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null)
   fsmonitor=$($git config core.fsmonitor)
   if [[ -n $fsmonitor && $fsmonitor != true && $fsmonitor != false ]]; then
           git+=(-c core.fsmonitor=false)
           echo "Worrying git core.fsmonitor setting: $fsmonitor"
   fi
