ghq list is slow when a root directory contains directories which are not managed by any VCS.

It seems that ghq list walks directory until it find a VCS configuration like .git directory.
It would be helpful if ghq could give some kind of warning when it hits directories which are not managed by VCSs.

Versions

ghq -v
ghq version 1.2.1 (rev:dd139fb)

Maybe a setting to ignore all directories without a specific VCS subdir like .git would be nice

Quick alternative: find $(ghq root) -maxdepth 4 -type d -name .git -printf '%P\n' | xargs -n1 dirname

(Change 4 to your suitable value)

feat(fish): replace ghq with ghr
cd265e6 
When the list of repositories in my ghq source directory got large, it
was getting extremely slow when performing a clone[^1][^2].

It turns out that I have a lot of directories that are not managed by
git especially within my work folder. I was able to figure this out
after moving out the _work_ directory outside the `~/Sources` dir.

I found https://github.com/siketyan/ghr and it seems to be fast because
it doesn't check `.git` folders (which I'm fine with)
