At this point, $__git_dir is c:/dir style, whereas $pwd_p is /c/dir style,
and the intended prefix check does not trigger.
As long as $__git_dir is only used to access files, it does not matter
whether it is Windows style or POSIX style. But if $__git_dir is used in a
comparison, then you must make 100% sure that the involved paths are of
the same vintage.
What would be lost if this patch were dropped?
