convert: pass absolute paths to git (SEC)

Fixes CVE-2016-3105 (1/1).

Previously, it was possible for the repository path passed to git-ls-remote
to be misinterpreted as a URL.

Always passing an absolute path to git is a simple way to avoid this.

#require execbit

  $ hg init
  $ echo a > a
  $ hg ci -Am'not executable'

  $ chmod +x a

Make sure we notice the change of mode if the cached size == -1:

  $ hg rm a
  $ hg revert -r 0 a
  $ hg debugstate
  n   0         -1 unset               a
  $ hg status
  M a

  $ hg up 0
