Weird behaviour when redirecting stdout of `git hub forks`, apparently repo specific too.

[andreas-kupries]

Installed git hub is commit a4b5580678f18a9f91c0783250f2850383be58ec.

When I redirect stdout for a specific repository git hub forks exits with status 1.
For a different repository the status is 0.
When not redirecting stdout the problematic repository is not a problem anymore.

Removing the --git-dir option I used and the behaviour is all the same.
(The CWD is outside any git checkout)

As such I am suspecting that git hub forks has an issue with the repository itself, and not the local checkout for it. Trying the command on a different machine and I see the same issue.

Something in the intersection of the specific repository (mattijk/consio) and stdout a terminal vs redirected to a file for git hub forks is trouble.

Here is my session for one the boxes, still all with --git-dir.
