Earlier, we punted and simply assumed that we are in the top-level
directory of the project, and that there is no .git file but a .git/
directory so that we can read directly from .git/config.
Let's discover the .git/ directory correctly.

- * Note that this is a really dirty hack that does the wrong thing in

- * So if we _aren't_ in a repository (or we are but we would reject its

- * root, we'll fail to find .git/config (because it's really
- * ../.git/config, etc). See t7006 for a complete set of failures.

- * However, we have historically provided this hack because it does
