I think your patch is the right solution. Here it is with a commit

Subject: [PATCH] diff: strip extra "/" when stripping prefix
There are two ways a user might want to use "diff
--relative":
1. For a file in a directory, like "subdir/file", the user
can use "--relative=subdir/" to strip the directory.
2. To strip part of a filename, like "foo-10", they can
use "--relative=foo-".
We currently handle both of those situations. However, if
the user passes "--relative=subdir" (without the trailing
slash), we produce inconsistent results. For the unified
diff format, we collapse the double-slash of "a//file"
correctly into "a/file". But for other formats (raw, stat,
name-status), we end up with "/file".
We can do what the user means here and strip the extra "/"
(and only a slash). We are not hurting any existing users
of (2) above with this behavior change because the existing
output for this case was nonsensical.
Patch by Jakub, tests and commit message by Jeff King.
