Shortly before your email I had already sent the v12 patch.

I did make changes in setup_git_directory_gently_1(), and logically it 
shouldn't cause major issues.

Unfortunately, looking back now, my implementation barely qualifies as 
“functional” and actually undermines the purpose of setup_git..() 
itself. It's a mess — I rushed into it without properly reviewing the 
context (like how other cases are handled) :(((

I'll polish it thoroughly before releasing v13.
