[PATCH] setup_git_directory: Setup cwd properly if worktree is found

From
Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com>
Date

Message-ID
<20071112112408.GA5420@laptop>

This makes sure (if possible) the current working directory is at root worktree. "git rev-parse --show-cwd" is added to aid the tests. Also the first test is for "Add missing inside_work_tree" commit.
