Actually, why there should be an _environment_ variable
GIT_COMMON_DIR at all? I mean, gitdir is resolved to some
directory (through link or environment), and it contains the
shared data directly or referes to it with the commondir
link. In which case anyone would want to override that
location?
I searched though tests but they don't cover this.
