Right.  And as Junio pointed out, an xstrdup().

Well, that is a left over of some unrelated editing.

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?

Ciao,
Dscho
