Where are you setting this path? If "systemd --user" is already running
(which happens automatically with newer systemd's) then you have to make
sure *it* knows about the env var, not just the client side calls in.

This *might* work, but I don't know for sure as I've not fiddled with
this stuff.

systemctl --user set-environment SYSTEMD_USER_PATH=$HOME/somegitrepo/units/
systemctl --user daemon-reload
