rev-parse: let some options run outside repository
Once upon a time, you could use "--local-env-vars" and "--resolve-git-dir" outside of any git repository, but they had to come first on the command line. Commit 68889b4 (rev-parse: remove restrictions on some options, 2013-07-21) put them into the normal option-parsing loop, fixing the latter. But it inadvertently broke the former, as we call setup_git_directory() before starting that loop. We can note that those options don't care even conditionally about whether we are in a git repo. So it's fine if we simply wait to setup the repo until we see an option that needs it. However, there is one special exception we should make: historically, rev-parse will set up the repository and read config even if there are _no_ options. Some of the tests in t1300 rely on this to check "git -c $config" parsing. That's not mirroring real-world use, and we could tweak the test. But t0002 uses a bare "git rev-parse" to check "are we in a git repository?". It's plausible that real-world scripts are relying on this. So let's cover this case specially, and treat an option-less "rev-parse" as "see if we're in a repo". Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
