Subject: var: Don't require to be in a git repository.
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.6-rc0~157^2~3
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2fba8366ed1e77685c83bbb0fa353c11624f0121;p=git.git

var: Don't require to be in a git repository.

git var works fine even when not called in a git repository. So
don't require it.

This will make it possible to remove this pre-condition for some
other git commands as well.
