On Windows, if git-sizer is run against a non-bare repository, and that repository has an executable called git.exe, git.bat, etc., then that executable might be run by git-sizer rather than the system git executable. An attacker could try to use social engineering to get a victim to run git-sizer against a hostile repository and thereby get the victim to run arbitrary code.
On Linux or other Unix-derived platforms, a similar problem could occur if the user's PATH has the current directory before the path to the standard git executable, but this is would be a very unusual configuration that has been known for decades to lead to all kinds of security problems.
