So the proper solution is to do it from the bare clone itself.
However, 'git maintenance register' silently fails (with an 0 exit
code). There are two tell-tale signs:
1. 'git config --global --get maintenance.repo' returns '.'

I have a patch which fixes the problem with the bare repo path being
incorrectly registered as ".", but I still need to create a regression
test for it.
