Both daemon.c and shell.c contain logic to open FDs 0/1/2 from
/dev/null if they are not already open.  Move the function in daemon.c
to setup.c and use it in shell.c, too.

While there, remove a 'not' that inverted the meaning of the comment.
The point is indeed to *avoid* messing up.

<id>e02ca72f70ed8f0268a81f72cb3230c72e538e77</id>
<content type='text'>
Original design of relative_path() is simple, just strip the prefix
(*base) from the absolute path (*abs).

In most cases, we need a real relative path, such as: ../foo,
../../bar.  That's why there is another reimplementation
(path_relative()) in quote.c.

Borrow some codes from path_relative() in quote.c to refactor
relative_path() in path.c, so that it could return real relative
path, and user can reuse this function without reimplementing
his/her own.  The function path_relative() in quote.c will be
substituted, and I would use the new relative_path() function when
implementing the interactive git-clean later.

Different results for relative_path() before and after this refactor:

    abs path  base path  relative (original)  relative (refactor)
    ========  =========  ===================  ===================
    /a/b      /a/b       .                    ./
    /a/b/     /a/b       .                    ./
    /a        /a/b/      /a                   ../
    /         /a/b/      /                    ../../
    /a/c      /a/b/      /a/c                 ../c
    /x/y      /a/b/      /x/y                 ../../x/y

    a/b/      a/b/       .                    ./
    a/b/      a/b        .                    ./
    a         a/b        a                    ../
    x/y       a/b/       x/y                  ../../x/y
    a/c       a/b        a/c                  ../c

    (empty)   (null)     (empty)              ./

    (null)    /a/b       (segfault)           ./

You may notice that return value "." has been changed to "./".
It is because:

 * Function quote_path_relative() in quote.c will show the relative
   path as "./" if abs(in) and base(prefix) are the same.

 * Function relative_path() is called only once (in setup.c), and
   it will be OK for the return value as "./" instead of ".".

The code assumes that the string ends at either `)` or `,`, and does
not handle the case where strcspn() returns length due to end of
string.  So specifying ":(top" as pathspec will cause the loop to go
past the end of string.

If an explicit GIT_DIR is given without a working tree, we
implicitly assume that the current working directory should
be used as the working tree. E.g.,:

  GIT_DIR=/some/repo.git git status

would compare against the cwd.

Unfortunately, we fool this rule for sub-invocations of git
by setting GIT_DIR internally ourselves. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails, as we expect
  git config alias.st status
  git status ;# does not fail, but should

What happens is that we run setup_git_directory when doing
alias lookup (since we need to see the config), set GIT_DIR
as a result, and then leave GIT_WORK_TREE blank (because we
do not have one). Then when we actually run the status
command, we do setup_git_directory again, which sees our
explicit GIT_DIR and uses the cwd as an implicit worktree.

It's tempting to argue that we should be suppressing that
second invocation of setup_git_directory, as it could use
the values we already found in memory. However, the problem
still exists for sub-processes (e.g., if "git status" were
an external command).

You can see another example with the "--bare" option, which
sets GIT_DIR explicitly. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails
  git --bare status ;# does NOT fail

We need some way of telling sub-processes "even though
GIT_DIR is set, do not use cwd as an implicit working tree".
We could do it by putting a special token into
GIT_WORK_TREE, but the obvious choice (an empty string) has
some portability problems.

Instead, we add a new boolean variable, GIT_IMPLICIT_WORK_TREE,
which suppresses the use of cwd as a working tree when
GIT_DIR is set. We trigger the new variable when we know we
are in a bare setting.

The variable is left intentionally undocumented, as this is
an internal detail (for now, anyway). If somebody comes up
with a good alternate use for it, and once we are confident
we have shaken any bugs out of it, we can consider promoting
it further.

The GIT_PREFIX variable is set based on our location within
the working tree. It should therefore be cleared whenever
GIT_WORK_TREE is cleared.

In practice, this doesn't cause any bugs, because none of
the sub-programs we invoke with local_repo_env cleared
actually care about GIT_PREFIX. But this is the right thing
to do, and future proofs us against that assumption changing.

While we're at it, let's define a GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT
macro; this avoids repetition of the string literal, which
can help catch any spelling mistakes in the code.
