v1.6.1.3~4^2 (Fix gitdir detection when in subdir of gitdir,
2009-01-16) did not go far enough: when a git directory is
an ancestor of the original working directory, not only
should GIT_DIR be set to point to the .git directory, but
the original working directory should be restored before
carrying out the relevant command.
This way, the effect of running a git command from a subdir
of .git will be the same whether or not GIT_DIR is explicitly
set.
Noticed while investigating v1.6.0.3~1 (rehabilitate 'git
index-pack' inside the object store, 2008-10-20).

"git apply", like most plumbing, does not automatically refresh the
index file even if it is only stat-dirty. So unless the two "cp"
commands in reset_preimage() for a given file happen to have the same
time stamp, there will be a spurious
error: sub/dir/file: does not match index
Refresh the index to eliminate this timing dependency. Noticed by
running the test with --valgrind (which slows things down a lot).

Make sure git apply can apply patches with paths relative to the
toplevel of a work tree, a subdirectory, or within the repository
metadata directory.
Relative paths are broken for most commands when run from a
subdirectory of $GIT_DIR, "git apply" being no exception. The other
tests are meant to keep the demonstration of that company.
Based on a test by Duy.
