Unset variables messing with Git use
This patch makes sure that variables from the environment cannot override e.g. the Git directory to operate on, as well as other critical parts of Git operations. These variables are: - GIT_DIR - GIT_WORK_TREE - GIT_NAMESPACE - GIT_INDEX_FILE - GIT_INDEX_VERSION - GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY - GIT_COMMON_DIR If any of those are set, pass might end up operating on another repository, and things would break. I caught this having GIT_DIR set, but fortunately the other repository had a .gitignore that would have ignored the file: ``` fishbowl~% echo $GIT_DIR /home/madduck/.config/vcsh/repo.d/zsh.git fishbowl~% pass generate test The following paths are ignored by one of your .gitignore files: .password-store/test.gpg Use -f if you really want to add them. The generated password for test is: … ``` The result was an orphan file `test.gpg` in the password-store root. Signed-off-by: Martin F. Krafft <madduck@madduck.net>
