From: Glen Choo <chooglen@xxxxxxxxxx> safe.bareRepository=explicit is a safer default mode of operation, since it guards against the embedded bare repository attack [1]. Most end users don't use bare repositories directly, so they should be able to set safe.bareRepository=explicit, with the expectation that they can reenable bare repositories by specifying GIT_DIR or --git-dir. However, the user might use a tool that invokes Git on bare repositories without setting GIT_DIR (e.g. "go mod" will clone bare repositories [2]), so even if a user wanted to use safe.bareRepository=explicit, it wouldn't be feasible until their tools learned to set GIT_DIR. To make this transition easier, add a trace message to note when we attempt to set up a bare repository without setting GIT_DIR. This allows users and tool developers to audit which of their tools are problematic and report/fix the issue. When they are sufficiently confident, they would switch over to "safe.bareRepository=explicit". Note that this uses trace2_data_string(), which isn't supported by the "normal" GIT_TRACE2 target, only _EVENT or _PERF.
