I also need this to complete this test:

diff --git a/t/t1504-ceiling-dirs.sh b/t/t1504-ceiling-dirs.sh

That said, I'm in the process of preparing a series that includes your
patch and that does the proper cleanup and code moving that you again
didn't do :-/ But it turns out that this is non-trivial because of bash's
(MSYS's) I-know-better-what-is-a-path-and-what-not behavior. It will take
some time...
