Makefile: Fix CDPATH problem

If CDPATH is set, "cd" prints its destination to stdout, causing
the common (cd a && tar cf - .) | (cd b && tar xf -) idiom to fail.
For example:

 make -C templates DESTDIR='' install
 make[1]: Entering directory `/users/e477610/exptool/src/git-1.7.0.2/templates'
 install -d -m 755 '/home/e477610/exptool/share/git-core/templates'
 (cd blt && gtar cf - .) | \
	(cd '/home/e477610/exptool/share/git-core/templates' && umask 022 && gtar xof -)
 gtar: This does not look like a tar archive

Most git scripts already protect against use of CDPATH through
git-sh-setup, but the Makefile doesn’t.
