+'GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM'::
+       When run in a directory that does not have ".git" repository

+       directories to find the top of the working tree, but by default it
+       does not cross filesystem boundaries.  This environment variable

+       an explicit repository directory set via 'GIT_DIR' or on the
+       command line.
