The vcstool can check out the git working copy in subdirectories that aren't directly under the src directory. This means that the path to the ROS package in the workspace may not reflect the path that bitbake would use to build the recipe. This creates the relative path by discovering the root of the git repository and using it as the base directory. Signed-off-by: Rob Woolley <rob.woolley@windriver.com>

This should resolve issues #5
Both the case where the package.xml is in a sub-directory:
src/mygroup/
as well as cases where the git repo is in a subdir:
src/mygroup/
