During the review of the `early-config` patch series, two issues have
been identified that have been with us forever.
The idea of that patch series was to fix the hard-coded (and sometimes
wrong) .git/config path when looking for the pager configurations. To
that end, the patches refactor the helper functions behind the
functionality of setup_git_directory(), to make it reusable without
changing any global state. Not to change said functionality.
So let's just mark the identified problems for later so that we do not
forget them.
