This adds a prefix string to any filename arguments encountered after it has been specified.
Very nice. I thought we'd have to resort to path mangling in shell to fix git-submodule.sh. Glad to see that we can go with something cleaner. Perhaps pull some bits from your nice Documentation into the commit message?

Okay, so you've essentially patched show_file() to accept an additional argument, and modified callers to call with this additional argument. I suppose show_(rev|reference|default|flag|rev|with_type|datestring|abbrev) don't need to be patched, as they are path-independent.

Wait, why isn't prefix filled in when run_builtin() calls this? Oh, right: because we didn't mark this builtin with RUN_SETUP or RUN_SETUP_GENTLY. Okay, now why didn't we change that? Because it would be a major problem (all our scripts would break) if rev-parse did cd-to-toplevel. Why are you setting prefix to argv[i+1], and then setting startup_info->prefix to that? Is anyone else in cmd_rev_parse() going to use it?

I'm wondering if you need such a convoluted usage though. Will you ever need to specify a prefix by hand that is different from what git rev-parse --show-toplevel returns? If not, why don't you just rev-parse --emulate-toplevel, and get rid of specifying prefix by hand altogether? Then again, this is a plumbing command, so the simplicity is probably more valuable.

Nit: when you're not putting in variables, you can cat <<-\EOF.

Nit: why did you change "./top" to "top"? Your --prefix option doesn't require you to change your arguments accordingly, does it?
