git-p4 tests: cd to / before running python

luked99 · gitster · commit d1deaf4d0206 · 2016-04-26T10:47:02.000-07:00
The python one-liner for getting the current time prints out
error messages if the current directory is deleted while it is
running if using python3.

Avoid these messages by switching to "/" before running it.

This problem does not arise if using python2.
