+ * To see why, note that before this function, there was this call:

+ * expanding the right hand side:
+ * = is_bare_repository_cfg && !get_git_work_tree()

+ * relevant calls in the code, and thus the !get_git_work_tree()
+ * calls will return the same result each time. So, what we are
+ * interested in computing is the right hand side of the line of
+ * code just above this comment:
+ * init_is_bare_repository || !work_tree
+ * = is_bare_repository_cfg && !work_tree || !work_tree
