From: John Keeping <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> When in a subdirectory of a repository, path arguments should be interpreted relative to the current directory not the root of the working tree. The Git::repository object passed into setup_dir_diff() is configured to handle this correctly but we create a new Git::repository here without setting the WorkingSubdir argument. By simply using the existing repository, path arguments are handled relative to the current directory.
