Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] require_work_tree broken with NONGIT_OK

From: Gabriel Filion <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 15 Feb 2010 10:44:56 -0500

Sourcing git-sh-setup: After having set NONGIT_OK, when calling the
function require_work_tree while outside of a git repository shows a
syntax error.
This is caused by the call to git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree
printing nothing when it is called outside of a git repository.

Quoting the call removes the syntax error and sending stderr to
/dev/null removes duplicate error messages.

This is a fixup rollout after discussion on the patch:
 - Commit message better identifies the cause of the problem
 - the test was not working in v1. fixed this up
