Removing the "chdir(".git")" thing is very wrong, though. Why do it?

It's very much on purpose: you can export even "regular" git trees (ie 
trees you have checked out) without the other side having to say

	git clone machine.com:/home/torvalds/v2.6/linux/.git

where the final "/.git" is just stupid.
