I think you're on the right track. Although the problem is
hold_locked_index() in cmd_update_index() when the index path is
relative. After setup_work_tree(), the saved path points to a wrong
place and can't be unlinked anymore.

This patch seems to fix it

We could turn all lockfile's path absolute when setup_work_tree()
moves pwd, but that seems dangerous without looking through how all
lockfiles are used.
