Introduce an auxiliary function to clear all repo-local environment variables. This should be invoked by any shell script that switches repository during execution, to ensure that the environment is clean and that things such as the git dir and worktree are set up correctly.
The list matches the one in git_connect(), so bring them in sync by adding the missing CONFIG_ENVIRONMENT. Also add a note about the fact that they should be kept that way.
