Re: [PATCH] An alias that starts with "!!" runs in the current directory.

It is designed to return what we internally call "prefix".  You however
have to be careful as it can return NULL or an empty string when you are
already at the top of the working tree.

OK, in this case it looks like it should work as expected.  At least
provided that chdir("") stays in the same directory -- and given the
call at the end of handle_alias(), it looks like this assumption is
already made.  Does this sound right?
