 Currently auto-upgrade doesn't work if it detects a VCS. I'd like to add a
 config option to have it ignore that.

 Would that be ok?

 I'd put it in wp-admin/includes/class-wp-upgrader.php probably near like
 2750

       public function is_vcs_checkout

 And just have it return false if some config option is set

 Any preference for the name? Maybe AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_IGNORE_VCS
