Let's say we have GIT_DIR=/tmp/git GIT_WORK_DIR=/tmp/foo and are in
/tmp. You want `git add bar` to chdir to /tmp/foo and add the file
bar from /tmp/foo?
Yes. I wanted it for easy scripting but it's not very intuitive from
command line. I'd take it back.

I thought you meant the chdir to the toplevel directory when you're in
a subdirectory. For this case I'd rather suggest
mygit() {
old=$(pwd)
cd "$MYTOPDIR"
git "$@"
ret=$?
cd "$old"
return $ret
}
Thanks, will try
