Working with git in a submission directory #375
Description
We noticed that some students wanted to use git to back up / mirror their pulled assignments until they are submitted. Since the grader service itself uses Git to work with the submissions, there were conflicts due to different branches and additional commits and pushes.
Do you have a proposed way on how to use Git in a student's assignment directory, or is it simply not supported due to the internal Git repository?
Thank you!

Our plan is to remove the git functionality and replace it with two file storage backends:
Therefore, this change will solve your issue in the future!
