Re: Q about git rev-parse {--is-inside-work-tree, --show-cdup}

2. Wouldn't it be useful, if "git rev-parse --show-cdup" (2a) would
return a dot "." instead of nothing if we are already in the topdir?
That would make the steps (2a), (2b), (2c) to a simple "cd $(git
rev-parse --show-cdup)".

The string returned by --show-cdup is to be used as prefix for a
relative path.  If you want to use it standalone just append ".":

cd $(git rev-parse --show-cdup).
