Yeah, this is my fault for my bad commit message. I stated I was
adding tests checking for the problems of interest, making it sound
like I was testing existing behavior, but I should have stated I was
adding tests with the behavior we'd prefer to have (i.e. basically a
test-driven-development) setup.
Also, there really wouldn't need to be so many tests for describing
the existing behavior. It's basically just `git
$OPERATION_THAT_REMOVES_CWD_AS_SIDE_EFFECT` followed by nearly any
other git command will cause the second and later commands to fail
with:
```
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access
parent directories: No such file or directory
fatal: Unable to read current working directory: No such file or directory
```
However, we do need a lot of tests for corrected behavior, because
there are so many different codepaths we can follow which will lead to
deletion of the current working directory.
