Git's worktree feature creates a ".git" which refers to references from the original (main) repository. This makes vc-list-files to fail for worktrees since it checks for both file's existence and the file being a directory. Checking for existence should be okay in this case, since the script doesn't touch anything within ".git" directly. Instead, it invokes git commands, which work from within a worktree nicely.
