The fix you did and the reason you stated why you did it in your
commit log message makes perfect sense (I think you missed the
other call to git-diff-tree at the end which is done the same
way with xargs, though); what I write below is not a complaint
to your patch.
But the code you are fixing looks to me like it is already
somewhat obsolete, even if it is still working. The munging of
user-given paths into $filter temporary file was necessary only
because older git-diff-* family did not work from anywhere but
the top-level directory; they do, thanks to Linus' enhancements,
these days.
I think it is time to start updating Cogito to take advantage of
the modern core. I do not do Porcelains, but here is my stab at
it.
------------
[PATCH] Redo cg-diff without its own "relative path" support.
It used to be that you had to do "relative path" by hand if you
wanted to work from a subdirectory, but some commands, notably
git-diff-* family, from the modern core knows how to do that
themselves, so take advantage of that.

jc: The upstream maintainer is welcome to take it, but this
patch is not intended for immediate inclusion. I am sure
there are corner cases I overlooked, without knowing the
subtleties of what tree-id is supposed to do, for example.
Setting _git_repo_unneeded upfront to forcibly disable the
relative path support is another thing I am not proud about;
there would probably be a better way which I did not find
only because I did not look closely enough.
