The patch series that I sent out was deficient in many ways, but I was tired, and wanted to show where I am heading. ATM I am trying to finish up this series, with quite a few changes to the code I sent out. But there is a fundamental question I have to ask: Is there any reason why $ git --git-dir=/some/where/else.git bla should pretend that the repo is bare if core.bare == 1? I mean, we are implicitely setting the work tree to the cwd, no? IOW I see the merits of "core.bare = false" (to prevent harm when calling git inside the git directory), but I cannot see the merits of "core.bare = true". Someone enlighten me?
