Agreed.  I've also noticed that the legacy "path" variable hasn't been
adjusted and the printing of the module paths does not make them
relative.  I'll fix them in the next version.

Ah, ok.  I think this case is problematic because the repository
argument is either relative to "remote.origin.url" or to the top of the
working tree if there is no "origin" remote.  I wonder if we should just
die when a relative path is given for the repository and we're not at
the top of the working tree.

Will fix.
