With this change, sm_gitdir will always be absolute, which means the
parameter to clone_submodule() call (immedately after this hunk)
will now be always absolute.  I do not think "git clone" called from
there will leave anything in the resulting repository that depends
on the --separate-git-dir=<dir> being relative or absolute, so this
change should not cause us new problems.

By the way, this line is the last use of sm_gitdir_rel before it
gets freed.  I wonder

	sm_gitdir = absolute_path(sb.buf);

would be sufficient.  We can lose the variable, and free() on it at
the end of this function, and an extra allocation if we can do so.

Other than that, looks good to me.

Thanks.
