Very nice.  I thought we'd have to resort to path mangling in shell to
fix git-submodule.sh.  Glad to see that we can go with something
cleaner.

Perhaps pull some bits from your nice Documentation into the commit message?

Okay, so you've essentially patched show_file() to accept an
additional argument, and modified callers to call with this additional
argument.  I suppose
show_(rev|reference|default|flag|rev|with_type|datestring|abbrev)
don't need to be patched, as they are path-independent.

Uh, why do you need output_prefix?  If startup_info->prefix is set,
use it.  Is startup_info->prefix set by anyone by cmd_rev_parse()?

Wait, why isn't prefix filled in when run_builtin() calls this?  Oh,
right: because we didn't mark this builtin with RUN_SETUP or
RUN_SETUP_GENTLY.  Okay, now why didn't we change that?  Because it
would be a major problem (all our scripts would break) if rev-parse
did cd-to-toplevel.

Why are you setting prefix to argv[i+1], and then setting
startup_info->prefix to that?  Is anyone else in cmd_rev_parse() going
to use it?

I'm wondering if you need such a convoluted usage though.  Will you
ever need to specify a prefix by hand that is different from what git
rev-parse --show-toplevel returns?  If not, why don't you just
rev-parse --emulate-toplevel, and get rid of specifying prefix by hand
altogether?  Then again, this is a plumbing command, so the simplicity
is probably more valuable.

Nit: when you're not putting in variables, you can cat <<-\EOF.

Nit: why did you change "./top" to "top"?  Your --prefix option
doesn't require you to change your arguments accordingly, does it?
