- This fixes issue 5061.
- Previously, a user could set `GH_REPO=TestOrg/repo` and run `gh api
repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases` expecting to see the releases from
`TestOrg/repo` but instead see releases from the current git repo
they're in.
- Or, worse, if the user ran the command from outside of a git repo,
they'd see a "not a git repo" error from git itself.
- This was different to `GH_REPO=TestOrg/repo gh release list` which
successfully lists `TestOrg/repo`'s releases.

Before:
```shell
$ cd repos/issyl0/not-a-git-repo
$ GH_REPO=issyl0/terraform-provider-improvmx gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases
unable to expand placeholder in path: fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
/opt/homebrew/bin/git: exit status 128
```
```shell
$ cd repos/issyl0/a-git-repo-with-no-releases
$ GH_REPO=issyl0/terraform-provider-improvmx gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases
[]
```
After:
```shell
$ cd repos/issyl0/not-a-git-repo
$ GH_REPO=issyl0/terraform-provider-improvmx ../../cli/cli/bin/gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases
[lots of JSON about GH_REPO's releases - success]
