Git repositories are not correctly detected

[stefanobartoletti]

Describe the bug I'm unable to make cloc work correctly when passing the --vcs=git argument, of course when giving it the path of an actual local git repository.

In example, this is what I getas output by running on a specific folder (which is like I said a git repo) without arguments:

> cloc Personali/nuxt-storyblok-starter/
      50 text files.
      44 unique files.                              
      12 files ignored.

The problem was cloc wasn't cd'ing to the given directory so the git commands failed. Give 46655b4 a try.

Thanks, the version from that commit seems to work fine.
