When gitfile is used, git sets GIT_DIR environment variable for subsequent commands, and that commands start working in mode "GIT_DIR set, workdir current", which is incorrect for the case when git runs from subdirectory of repository. This can be observed at least for running aliases - git fails with message "internal error: work tree has already been set" Fix by setting GIT_WORK_TREE environment also. Add test which demonstrates problem with alias.
