The problem is if you are tracing in a subdir foo/bar and the trace output says "cd xyz". You can' just copy and execute that command and have to do "cd ../../xyz". I don't see how "cd -" would solve that. Printing "cd $(git rev-parse --show-cdup)/xyz" could solve it without passing the prefix down to this trace function. I guess. But then that command depends on $GIT_DIR. If your $GIT_DIR is being changed (i.e. submodules), it gets ugly again. -- Duy
