Hi,

Yeah, for historical reasons GIT_WORK_TREE defaults to $(pwd) when
GIT_DIR is explicitly set.

In git versions including the patch 2cd83d10bb6b (setup: suppress
implicit "." work-tree for bare repos, 2013-03-08, currently in "next"
but not "master"), you can set GIT_IMPLICIT_WORK_TREE=0 to avoid this
behavior.

Thanks for a useful example, and sorry for the trouble.

Sincerely,
Jonathan
