From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" <ja...@zx2c4.com> While doing any kind of git loading, unset HOME variables and set NOSYSTEM variables so that cgit does not load any settings that a user may have set for his own /usr/bin/git usage.
This fixes a fatal error introduced with git 1.8, whereupon git would fatally exit when failing to access particular files. Reported-by: Ferry Huberts <ferry.hube...@pelagic.nl> Tested-by: Jason A.
