Re: git clone does not work with GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY set

And another bug (linux-2.6.git was created with a clone of git://.../ 
while GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY was set):

$ git clone linux-2.6.git bootcache.git
fatal: '/home/bcrl/linux-2.6.git/.git': unable to chdir or not a git archive
fatal: unexpected EOF
clone-pack from '/home/bcrl/linux-2.6.git/.git' failed.
$ 

Please try it without GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY and see it works
correctly (I think it should).  If that is the case, maybe
git-clone should explicitly unset GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY.
