I do not think it is a bad thing for _your_ script to have the
knowledge that in _your_ repositories everywhere, the top of the
work tree is $GIT_DIR/.. and there is no repository that lacks a
work tree.  Obviously that would not work for people with bare
repositories, but they would not be using _your_ script in their
bare repositories, so that is Ok.

You can also configure core.worktree in $GIT_DIR/config and use
that from the hook script, I presume, although I haven't done it
(and do not see a need to do so) myself yet.
