[PATCH] config: complain about --worktree outside of a git repo

[PATCH] config: complain about --worktree outside of a git repo

[Matheus Tavares]

Running `git config --worktree` outside of a git repository hits a BUG()
when trying to enumerate the worktrees. Let's catch this error earlier
and die() with a friendlier message.
