Hmm. You are not making anything worse here, as we already do not check
the return value of getcwd. But what happens if it fails? Looks like we
currently get a segfault, and the new code will silently set the
variable to the empty string. Neither is particularly helpful.
Should we be using the xgetcwd helper that you add in the next patch?
Probably. And I was so glad to have found an example case for getcwd
without dying and without touching the get-there-and-back cases. :)
Guess I'll have to look closer at setup.c and perhaps unix-socket.c for
a replacement.
By the way: Simply setting $GIT_DIR to "." probably won't work in the
two cases, I guess?

Ditto here.
