From: Jacob Keller <jacob.keller@xxxxxxxxx> I noticed a failure with git rebase interactive mode which causes "exec" commands to be run with GIT_DIR set. When GIT_DIR is in the environment, then any command which results in running a git command in a subdirectory will fail because GIT_DIR=".git". This unfortunately breaks one of my project's Makefiles, which uses git-describe to find the version information, but does so from within a sub directory. I'm in the process of running a bisect to find where this got introduced, but I suspect it's part of the rebase--helper changes that happened a while ago.
