help_unknown_cmd() will need to look into repository's config, in
order to collect all possible commands/aliases and give a
suggestion. So, repository must be set up before this function is
called.
As it is now, because
- alias handling will always be done before help_unknown_cmd()
- alias handling code will search and set up repository if found
- alias handline code will not undo repository setup
These ensure that repository will always be set up (or attempted to
set up) before help_unknown_cmd(), so there is no issue. But the setup
dependency here is subtle. It may break some day if someone reorders
the loop, for example.
Make a note about this.
