tests: try harder to prevent Git from reading external configuration

Tests would fail if ~/.gitconfig contained for example:

[init]
defaultBranch = main

Setting GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=/dev/null prevents Git from reading ~/.gitconfig ...
but isn't support by Dulwich and doesn't solve the problem.

We will thus work around this issue by setting HOME to the temp test location.
That will prevent Dulwich from reading configuration files by making
os.path.expanduser point to a location with known content.

We also set XDG_CONFIG_HOME to avoid reading ~/.config/git/config .

Setting GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM will prevent reading /etc/gitconfig - that seems
like a good idea too.
.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
