I also took the liberty of removing the_repository as I wanted to make sure
that wasn't involved here.
Thanks, -Stolee

@@ Commit message
repository's local config (demonstrating that it worked with
non-worktree Git repositories).
- The fix is simple: unset the environment variable before looping over
- the repos.
+ We need to be careful to unset the local Git environment variables and
+ let the child process rediscover them, while also reinstating those
+ variables in the parent process afterwards. Update run_command_on_repo()
+ to store, unset, then reset the non-NULL variables.
