It works fine for me. What's the result of

git '--git-dir=/path/to/repository/.git' '--work-tree=/path/to/repository' --git-dir git '--git-dir=/path/to/repository/.git' '--work-tree=/path/to/repository' --is-inside-work-tree git '--git-dir=/path/to/repository/.git' '--work-tree=/path/to/repository' --show-toplevel

Also what version of git are you using?
