Re: [PATCH] Reinstate the old behaviour when GIT_DIR is set and GIT_WORK_TREE is unset

I don't know if you planed to make 

	git checkout-index --prefix=/tmp/tra -a

work (again) in a bare repo.  Probably not, so it's no surprise that it
still doesn't work.

I think it is now safe to revert that NEED_WORK_TREE change
in git.c for checkout-index.
