The "git maintenance run" and "git maintenance start/stop" commands holds a file-based lock at the .git/maintenance.lock and .git/schedule.lock respectively. These locks are used to ensure only one maintenance process is executed at the time as both operations involves writing data into the git repository. The path to the lock file is built using "the_repository->objects->odb->path" that results in SEGFAULT when we have no repository available as "the_repository->objects->odb" is set to NULL. Let's teach maintenance command to use RUN_SETUP option that will provide the validation and fail when running outside of a repository. Hence fixing the SEGFAULT for all three operations and making the behaviour consistent across all subcommands. Setting the RUN_SETUP also provides the same protection for all subcommands given that the "register" and "unregister" also requires to be executed inside a repository. Furthermore let's remove the local validation implemented by the "register" and "unregister" as this will not be required anymore with the new option.
