[BUG?] `config branch.autosetuprebase true` breaks `rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree`

Dear all,

I am not sure if this is an actual bug or just a corner case that's not worth to be fixed.

This was not tested with HEAD or even 2.1.2, but 2.1.1.

Notwithstanding if the setting is correct, shouldn't rev-parse be resilient enough to at least be able to tell if we're in a work tree? I understand why `git status` and the like would need to parse the full config, but determining if you're in a work tree should be possible in most if not all cases. Unless detached work trees get you into a situation where you really need to parse the whole config...

So this is not a real bug report, more of a "is this intended this way?"

As you can see, my custom prompt (via vcs_info in Zsh) breaks due to that which is how I noticed.
