nightly panics when gitui opens from a repo's subdirectory, on Log tab

[doums]

Describe the bug

On a repo (nymtech/nym-vpn-client), when I open gitui from a subdirectory and the Log tab is selected it panics. Note it works as expected when I open it from repo's root.

GitUI was close due to an unexpected panic.

@cruessler I thought we had fixed that. did something change with a recent gix-path upgrade?

@extrawurst It seems we haven’t merged the PR that fixes the issue yet. :-) https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui/pull/2301 (I haven’t double-checked the PR again, so I don’t know whether we want to make further changes.)
