The Keybase filesystem journals changes and syncs them after writes, kind of
like Dropbox. Which means you and another team member could be fighting each
other and make a conflicted HEAD, where there'd be 2 copies side by side.
Similarly, you shouldn't put git repos in Dropbox.

Keybase's git prevents this by locking.

Also: it's nicer to use the Keybase app to discover and manage your teams'
repositories.

Dropbox App [1] and Keybase really isn't an alternative right now.
