My tcl is a little rusty but I think the problem might be this snippet.
# v1.7.0 introduced --show-toplevel to return the canonical work-tree
if {[package vsatisfies $_git_version 1.7.0]} {
if { [is_Cygwin] } {
catch {set _gitworktree [exec cygpath --windows [git rev-parse
--show-toplevel]]}
} else {
set _gitworktree [git rev-parse --show-toplevel]
}
} else {
# try to set work tree from environment, core.worktree or use
# cdup to obtain a relative path to the top of the worktree. If
# run from the top, the ./ prefix ensures normalize expands pwd.
if {[catch { set _gitworktree $env(GIT_WORK_TREE) }]} {
set _gitworktree [get_config core.worktree]
if {$_gitworktree eq ""} {
set _gitworktree [file normalize ./[git rev-parse --show-cdup]]
}
}
}
The vsatisfies call probably doesn't handle '2.0.0.rc0' and the
fallback behaviour probably needs to normalise core.worktree
