git_init in gitdll.c uses USERPROFILE for creating home.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Install tortoise git on a Windows 7 on domain without $HOME
2. Right click and check settings. Export variabeles.

It gives $HOME the same as USERPROFILE. Instead of HOMEDRIVE / HOMEPATH.

From git_init in gitdll.c - Line 104

// set HOME if not set already  
getenv_s(&homesize, NULL, 0, "HOME");  
if (!homesize)  
{  
	_dupenv_s(&home,&size,"USERPROFILE");  
	_putenv_s("HOME",home);  
	free(home);  
}  

Notice it uses the USERPROFILE.

The problem is the same as issue #922 (closed). (I guess git_init was forgotten)

It should be an easy fix.

Thanks Ahead
