Re: Mergetool generating blank files (1.5.3)

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

When mergetool is run from a subdirectory, "ls-files -u" nicely
limits the output to conflicted files in that directory, but
we need to give the full path to cat-file plumbing to grab the
contents of stages.

 * I earlier sent one with cd_to_toplevel but I think the
   approach in this patch is nicer.
