[PATCH 03/19] completion: use __gitdir() in _git_log()

The standard way to find out the path to the repository in the completion script is the __gitdir() helper function, because that handles the repository path given on the command line (i.e. git --git-dir=/path/to/repo log --<TAB>). However, there is one exception: the completion function for 'git log' still uses 'git rev-parse --git-dir' directly, and could offer (or not) the '--merge' option erroneously when the repository is specified on the command line.

Use __gitdir() there, too.
