git-filter-branch changes directory to $tempdir/t, which by default is .git-rewrite/t. Before doing the read-tree to update the working tree it uses "cd ../.." to get back to the working tree. This breaks if you use something like "-d /tmp/tempdir", as the read-tree will be executed in /tmp instead of in your working tree.
Fixed by adding a variable that holds the original value of $(pwd), and cd back to that value.
Added tests that demonstrates some issues that can happen without this fix.
