  43# From subdir-link, pulling should work as it does from
  44# clone-repo/subdir/.
  45#
  46# Instead, the error pull gave was:
  47#
  48#   fatal: 'origin': unable to chdir or not a git archive
  49#   fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
  50#
  51# because git would find the .git/config for the "trash directory"
  52# repo, not for the clone-repo repo.  The "trash directory" repo
  53# had no entry for origin.  Git found the wrong .git because
  54# git rev-parse --show-cdup printed a path relative to
  55# clone-repo/subdir/, not subdir-link/.  Git rev-parse --show-cdup
  56# used the correct .git, but when the git pull shell script did
  57# "cd `git rev-parse --show-cdup`", it ended up in the wrong
  58# directory.  A POSIX shell's "cd" works a little differently
  59# than chdir() in C; "cd -P" is much closer to chdir().
