I believe this change is the source of the breakage in tests.
GIT_DIR=foo git-init-db no longer works because handle_alias
unconditionally calls setup_git_directory_gently(), which thinks that if
GIT_DIR is set, it must exist.
This can be fixed by giving precedence to the internal command over
alias checking. This makes sense, anyway, since later in the function,
we give precedence to internal commands in the "git init-db" form.
Patch is below (wow, that +++ is kind of ugly!).

git: choose internal commands over aliases for git-*
This is especially important because some commands (like init-db) don't
require a working GIT_DIR, and alias expansion tries to look at it. It
also matches the behavior of "git cmd".
