Makefile: Fix CDPATH problem
If CDPATH is set, "cd" prints its destination to stdout, causing the common (cd a && tar cf - .) | (cd b && tar xf -) idiom to fail. For example: make -C templates DESTDIR='' install make[1]: Entering directory `/users/e477610/exptool/src/git-1.7.0.2/templates' install -d -m 755 '/home/e477610/exptool/share/git-core/templates' (cd blt && gtar cf - .) | \ (cd '/home/e477610/exptool/share/git-core/templates' && umask 022 && gtar xof -) gtar: This does not look like a tar archive Most git scripts already protect against use of CDPATH through git-sh-setup, but the Makefile doesn’t.
