Could you structure this part to read like this, into a separate
function:

static const char *strip_work_tree_path(const char *prefix, int len, const char *path)
{
	...
}

const char *prefix_path(const char *prefix, int len, const char *path)
{
	const char *orig = path;

	if (is_absolute_path(path))
		path = strip_work_tree_path(prefix, len, path);
	...


About the part that would be moved out of line with such a
restructuring,
+		int n = strlen(work_tree);
+		if (!strncmp(path, work_tree, n) && (path[n] == '/' || !path[n])) {
+			if (path[n])
+				path += n + 1;
+			else
+				path += n;
+
+			if (prefix && !strncmp(path, prefix, len - 1)) {
+				if (path[len - 1] == '/')
+					path += len;
+				else
+					if (!path[len - 1])
+						path += len - 1;
+			}
This makes me wonder what happens if after stripping the worktree path
path does not match the prefix.
