Turns out that git-annex breaks badly when git is configured with
`safe.bareRepository = explicit`.
The breakage starts with git-annex init:
joey@darkstar:~/tmp>git init g
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/joey/tmp/g/.git/
joey@darkstar:~/tmp>cd g
joey@darkstar:~/tmp/g>git-annex init
init ok
(recording state in git...)
joey@darkstar:~/tmp/g>git show git-annex | tail
+ joey@darkstar:~/tmp/g timestamp=1688579729.946567508s
uuid.log has a NoUUID item logged to it. This is despite annex.uuid being set.

And it seems this is because git-annex runs `git config --list`
inside `.git`.. Which with that config set, omits looking at
`config`.
