## Message

```
git: Revert skipping of events for the `.git` directory itself (#54443)

This reverts #54329 and the part of #52499 that was an earlier attempt
at the same thing, which caused us to incorrectly miss git state updates
on Windows. cc @Veykril it seems like we need to find a different way to
fix the problem of `.git` scanning cycles.
