Log: Object not found when using git worktree #394

Description

@psh-baxter

This is an upstream git worktree, as created with git worktree add. .git is a file with a gitdir: pointer to the base repo. git log works fine, however git.Log(repo, ...) exits with the error Object not found.
Here's a minimal reproduction:

package main

import (
	"io/ioutil"
	"log"
	"os"
	"os/exec"

	"github.com/go-git/go-git/v5"
	"github.com/go-git/go-git/v5/plumbing/object"
	"github.com/google/shlex"
)

func mkdir(path string) {
	_ = os.MkdirAll(path, 0o755)
}

func write(path string, text string) {
	_ = ioutil.WriteFile(path, []byte(text), 0o644)
}

func run(cwd string, command string) {
	parts, _ := shlex.Split(command)
	cmd := exec.Command(parts[0], parts[1:]...)
	cmd.Dir = cwd
	_ = cmd.Run()
}

func main() {
	mkdir("temp_repo")
	run("temp_repo", "git init")
	write("temp_repo/a.txt", "hi")
	run("temp_repo", "git add a.txt")
	run("temp_repo", "git commit -a -m 'commit 1' -n")
	write("temp_repo/a.txt", "hi 2")
	run("temp_repo", "git commit -a -m 'commit 2' -n")
	write("temp_repo/a.txt", "hi 3")
	run("temp_repo", "git commit -a -m 'commit 3' -n")
	mkdir("temp_worktree")
	run("temp_repo", "git worktree add -b mybranch ../temp_worktree master")

	rawRepo, err := git.PlainOpen("temp_worktree")
	if err != nil {
		log.Panic(err)
	}

	iter, err := rawRepo.Log(&git.LogOptions{})
	if err != nil {
		log.Panic(err)
	}
	err = iter.ForEach(func(c *object.Commit) error {
		log.Print(c)
		return nil
	})
	if err != nil {
		log.Panic(err)
	}
}

Run output:

$ ./a
2021/10/13 20:49:38 reference not found
panic: reference not found
