config value 'safe.directory' was not found

After upgrading to libgit2 1.5.0 some actions are showing:

Error in libgit2::git_repository_open_ext : 
  config value 'safe.directory' was not found

For example here.

I think this is a new security feature in libgit2, but it seems a bit overzealous?

Downgraded the static build to libgit2 1.4.2 for now until this is resolved upstream.

Not really. This only matters on multi-user machines. Making it mandatory, is for lack of a better word, bad design.
