yes, right, I misread the code, thanks for taking the time to correct 
me. My C knowledge is dated to say least and being succumbed by all the 
syntax sugar of dynamic languages, I misread
if (chdir("..")) { ... }
as "if changing the directory worked ok" :)

I do, I guess it makes sense to rework the patch on top of that.

What I also wanted to try is make the GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM 
warning go away for crypto home volumes, because that's kind of common 
and nobody needs git to discover repositories in this case. Only need to 
come up with an idea how to detect this case.
