[PATCH] Handle failure of core.worktree to identify the working directory.

variable but these may not be set which leads to a failure to launch
gitk to review history. Use _gitdir to set the location for a standard
git layout where the parent of the .git directory is the working tree.

Thanks,
Kirill
