From: Derrick Stolee <stolee@gmail.com>
When run in a worktree, the GIT_DIR directory is set in a different way than in a typical repository. Show this by updating t0068 to include a worktree and add a test that runs from that worktree. This requires moving the repo.key config into a global config instead of the base test repository's local config (demonstrating that it worked with non-worktree Git repositories).
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.
