I think this is actually a bug. Normally code that is checking config
before we've decide to do setup_git_directory() would use
read_early_config(), which uses discover_git_directory() to tentatively
see if we're in a repo, and if so to add it to the config sequence.

But this code uses the caching configset mechanism. And that code
(rightly) does not use read_early_config(), because it has no idea if
it's being called early or what.

I think we probably ought to be doing something like this:

It's less of an improvement than I'd hoped, since most of the code is
actually handling the "-" thing. So I don't think it's really worth the
churn. But here's what it looks like for reference:
