In a later patch we'll use connect_work_tree_and_git_dir when the directory for the gitlink file doesn't exist yet. This patch makes connect_work_tree_and_git_dir safe to use for both cases of either the git dir or the working dir missing. To do so, we need to call safe_create_leading_directories[_const] on both directories. However this has to happen before we construct the absolute paths as real_pathdup assumes the directories to be there already. So for both the config file in the git dir as well as the .git link file we need to a) construct the name b) call SCLD c) get the absolute path d) once a-c is done for both we can consume the absolute path to compute the relative path to each other and store those relative paths. The implementation provided here puts a) and b) for both cases first, and then performs c and d after. One of the two users of 'connect_work_tree_and_git_dir' already checked for the directory being there, so we can loose that check as connect_work_tree_and_git_dir handles this functionality now.
