While the patch itself is good (apart from using backticks, I think
a "$()" should be used there), I share your concerns about loosing
an opportunity to test git functionality against the real world.

What about doing the following instead?

submodurl=$(cd "$TRASH_DIRECTORY"; pwd -P)

(That pattern is already used in t/t0000-basic.sh)

But that is just nitpicking ...
