Setting the working directory before git operations

Created by: crazyscience

Set the initial working directory. An issue can arise if the user is logged in as root and the current working directory is /root/. The console will return an error:

fatal: Could not change back to '/root': Permission denied

Changing the working directory prior to the clone operation seems to fix this.

Can you put the change from #3861 into this PR? No need to keep them in separate pull requests.

Alright. Sorry about that. I'm a rookie here in the open source world. You live and you learn.

@crazyscience no worries and thanks for your work

can you squash all the commits into a single one? This will help us to keep the graph more focused.

You don't need to open a new PR after you squashed, simply issue a force push on the branch and GitHub will update the PR.
