The pathname of a repository comes from getcwd() and it could be a
path aliased via symbolic links, e.g., the real directory may be
/home/u/repository but a symbolic link /home/u/repo may point at it,
and the clone request may come as "git clone file:///home/u/repo/"
A request to check if /home/u/repository is safe would be rejected
if the safe.directory configuration allows /home/u/repo/ but not its
alias /home/u/repository/. Normalize the paths configured for the
safe.directory configuration variable before comparing them with the
path being checked.
