I don't follow.

git-ubuntu does escape the .git with a ..git intentionally, since as you
say this is unrepresentable in git. It's done this way so it's entirely
reversible.

The intention is that "git ubuntu build" (once fully implemented) would
correctly unescape the tree before a build. For anyone building by hand,
this unescaping is therefore also necessary by design.

So what's the bug here?
