[PATCH] Use core.sharedrepository consistently.

From: Fernando J. Pereda <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:42:21

'git init-db --shared' sets 'core.sharedRepository' but in
setup.c 'core.sharedrepository' is checked instead. This
trivial patch makes both init-db.c and its documentation to
use 'core.sharedrepository'.

It really shouldn't matter.

Case in a git config option name is always converted to lower case when 
the config file is read, exactly so that you can use mixed case without 
the actual readers caring. Lots of people prefer mixed-case for 
human-readable info, ie

	[Core]
		Name=Linus Torvalds

will actually generate

	core.name=Linus Torvalds

as the config variable.

So the code should have worked fine.  Unless there is some bug somewhere.
