setup_bare_git_dir(): help static analysis

Coverity reported a memory leak in this function. However, it can only be called once, as setup_git_directory() changes global state and hence is not reentrant. Mark the variable as static to indicate that this is a singleton. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
