From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@xxxxxxxxx> v1.6.1.3~4^2 (Fix gitdir detection when in subdir of gitdir, 2009-01-16) did not go far enough: when a git directory is an ancestor of the original working directory, not only should GIT_DIR be set to point to the .git directory, but the original working directory should be restored before carrying out the relevant command. This way, the effect of running a git command from a subdir of .git will be the same whether or not GIT_DIR is explicitly set. Noticed while investigating v1.6.0.3~1 (rehabilitate 'git index-pack' inside the object store, 2008-10-20).
