1314: ambiguity in git repository paths is not handled

What version are you running?
1.0.1

What's the URL of the page containing the problem?
None

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a git repository entry in the RB admin (e.g. /tmp/repo/.git).
1. Clone the git repository specifying its directory (not .git
subdirectory), e.g. "git clone /tmp/repo /tmp/repo1".
2. Modify some files in the cloned repository.
3. Issue post-review in the cloned repository.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Creation of a new review request is expected. post-review prints 'Error
creating review request: The repository path specified is not in the list
of known repositories (code 206)'

What operating system are you using? What browser?
Fedora 11

Please provide any additional information below.
It would also be good if one could specify a git repository path in the RB
admin without necessarily adding the .git subdirectory (which can be
appended automatically by RB).

I don't think it's worth adding this complexity. The text on the page says to use the 
.git directory, and the local git support isn't what most people want anyway.
