Works fine for me.  Are you sure you didn't have a typo in your original
git-new-workdir invocation?  If so, could you supply:

 1) the complete output of running git-new-workdir
 2) the output of "git rev-parse --git-dir" run in path/to/repo/.git

Also, you shouldn't need to supply the .git, so "git new-workdir
path/to/repo newworkdirname" should also work, have you tried that?

git-new-workdir portage/ test

cd portage/
/home/port/portdev/tree/portage
slave-iv portage $ git rev-parse --git-dir .
.git
.

git-new-workdir . ../test/ << seems to work too.
