So repo is not actually used here. Why pass it in? It's not like the
init functions all need have the same signature.
Not shown here: archive-zip.c still sets USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE.
Perhaps dealing with that is better left to a separate patch, but the
commit message should reflect that only the tar format handler is
treated here.
