[PATCH 0/3] credential-cache: give daemon a predictable cwd

From

The credential-cache--daemon may live forever in whatever directory it happened to be spawned in (in practice, probably the root of some git repo's work tree). This can prevent umount from unmounting a filesystem that contains that directory, even though credential-cache doesn't care one way or the other.

Jon Griffiths sent a patch to me and to the list, but it seems that vger blocks all mail from yahoo, including him. Eep. So he and I had some off-list back-and-forth, and ended up at this series, which I agreed to pass along.

I've made a few minor tweaks from the last version he sent me. Hopefully nothing he disagrees with, but of course he has no means to complain to the list if so. :)

  [1/3]: credential-cache--daemon: refactor check_socket_directory
  [2/3]: credential-cache--daemon: disallow relative socket path
  [3/3]: credential-cache--daemon: change to the socket dir on startup
