Sheesh, you got me worried. This is a non issue; git-add--interactive is not for direct end user consumption. It relies on being run from git-add wrapper, which does cdup to the top of the work tree before launching add--interactive helper.
Ah, OK. Would it not be easy then to add a check to the beginning of git-add--interactive to verify that it is indeed being run from the top of the work tree? A user may well discover git-add--interactive before git-add --interactive (e.g. by shell completion) and if git- add--interactive is going to fail, it should do so right away so as to not confuse the user.
I understand that programs such as git-add--interactive will be moved out of the executable path not too long from now, which will also ameliorate the situation.
