It seems like if pgindent knows about git, it ought to process only
tracked files. Then, it wouldn't need to manually exclude generated
files, and it wouldn't process vpath builds and who-knows-what else it
finds in CWD.
At least --commit doesn't seem to work when run outside of the root
source dir.
