Commit d95138e [1] fixes a .git file problem by setting GIT_WORK_TREE
whenever GIT_DIR is set. It sounded harmless because we handle
GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE side by side for most commands, with two
exceptions: git-init and git-clone.
"git clone" is not happy with d95138e. This command ignores GIT_DIR
but respects GIT_WORK_TREE [2] [3] which means it used to run fine
from a hook, where GIT_DIR was set but GIT_WORK_TREE was not (*). With
d95138e, GIT_WORK_TREE is set all the time and git-clone interprets
that as "I give you order to put the worktree here", usually against
the user's intention.
The solution in d95138e is reverted in this commit. Instead we reuse
the solution from c056261 [4]. c056261 fixes another setup-messed-
up-by-alias by saving and restoring env and spawning a new process,
but for git-clone and git-init only. Now I conclude that setup-messed-
up-by-alias is always evil. So the env restoration is done for _all_
commands, including external ones, whenever aliases are involved. It
fixes what d95138e tries to fix. And it does not upset git-clone-
inside-hooks.
The test from d95138e remains to verify it's not broken by this. A new
test is added to make sure git-clone-inside-hooks remains happy.
(*) GIT_WORK_TREE was not set _most of the time_. In some cases
GIT_WORK_TREE is set and git-clone will behave differently. The
use of GIT_WORK_TREE to direct git-clone to put work tree
elsewhere looks like a mistake because it causes surprises this
way. But that's a separate story.
