refs: remove remaining uses of `the_repository`
There are still a couple of callsites that use `the_repository`. Convert these to instead use a repository injected by the caller. This allows us to remove `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE`. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
