Hi,

In a worktree, git rev-parse --git-common-dir returns the non
worktree-specific git directory. e.g. .git instead of
.git/worktrees/name. The problem is that while it returns the right
thing from a subdirectory of a worktree, it doesn't from a subdirectory
of the "main" work tree. In the latter case it returns ".git" instead
of the full path to it.

Mike
