Fix gitdir detection when in subdir of gitdir
If the current working directory is a subdirectory of the gitdir (e.g. <repo>/.git/refs/), then setup_git_directory_gently() will climb its parent directories until it finds itself in a gitdir. However, no matter how many parent directories it climbs, it sets 'GIT_DIR_ENVIRONMENT' to ".", which is obviously wrong. This behaviour affected at least 'git rev-parse --git-dir' and hence caused some errors in bash completion (e.g. customized command prompt when on a detached head and completion of refs). To fix this, we set the absolute path of the found gitdir instead. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
