Initializing Rugged objects is way too expensive just to check if a repository exists. Even though we cache this data once in a while we have to refresh this. On GitLab.com we have seen Repository#exists? taking up to _1 minute_ to complete in the absolute worst case, though usually it sits around a second or so. Using File.exist? to instead check if $GIT_DIR/refs exists is a much faster way of checking if a repository was initialized properly.
