~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These environment variables apply to 'all' core Git commands. Nb: it
is worth noting that they may be used/overridden by SCMS sitting above
-Git so take care if using Cogito etc.
+Git so take care if using a foreign front-end.
'GIT_INDEX_FILE'::
This environment allows the specification of an alternate
an explicit repository directory set via 'GIT_DIR' or on the
command line.
+'GIT_COMMON_DIR'::
+ If this variable is set to a path, non-worktree files that are
+ normally in $GIT_DIR will be taken from this path
+ instead. Worktree-specific files such as HEAD or index are
+ taken from $GIT_DIR. See linkgit:gitrepository-layout[5] and
+ linkgit:git-worktree[1] for
+ details. This variable has lower precedence than other path
+ variables such as GIT_INDEX_FILE, GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY...
