GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES doesn't prevent chdir up into another directory while looking for a repository directory if it is equal to the current directory. Because of this, the test which claims to test the git grep --no-index command outside of a repository actually tests it inside of a repository. The test_must_fail assertions still pass because the git grep only looks at untracked files and therefore no file matches, but not because it's run outside of a repository as it was originally intended. Set the GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES environment variable to the parent directory of the directory in which the git grep command is executed, to make sure it is actually run outside of a git repository.
