Between this & the thread at
http://lore.kernel.org/git/20210420212731.GY2947267@szeder.dev I'm not
sure what wording you'd be OK with, would you mind suggesting an
alternative?

As far as I can see it's some subtlety of how we explain the cd-ing &
subshelling we did as a combination of eedf8f97e58 (Abstract
test_create_repo out for use in tests., 2006-02-17) and my 0d314ce834d
(test-lib: use subshell instead of cd $new && .. && cd $old,
2010-08-30).

Maybe you'd be happy with this:

    In the code being removed here we both "cd"'d to the repository
    before calling "init", and did so in a subshell. It's not important
    to do either, so both of those can be removed. We cd'd because this
    code grew from test-lib.sh code where we'd have done so already, see
    0d314ce834d, and later "cd"'d inside a subshell since 0d314ce834d to
    avoid having to keep track of an "old pwd" variable to cd back after
    the setup.

    Being in the repository directory made moving the hooks around
    easier (we wouldn't have to fully qualify the path), but since we're
    not moving the hooks anymore we don't need it for that reason
    either.

?
