  42 #   fatal: 'origin': unable to chdir or not a git archive
  43 #   fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
  44 #
  45 # because git would find the .git/config for the "trash directory"
  46 # repo, not for the clone-repo repo.  The "trash directory" repo
  47 # had no entry for origin.  Git found the wrong .git because
  48 # git rev-parse --show-cdup printed a path relative to
  49 # clone-repo/subdir/, not subdir-link/.  Git rev-parse --show-cdup
  50 # used the correct .git, but when the git pull shell script did
  51 # "cd `git rev-parse --show-cdup`", it ended up in the wrong
  52 # directory.  A POSIX shell's "cd" works a little differently
  53 # than chdir() in C; "cd -P" is much closer to chdir().
