I suspect you might get better responses from the makers of bundler 
(http://bundler.io/, http://groups.google.com/group/ruby-bundler).

These long and repetitive messages make me feel dizzy.  So git fetch was 
executed in 
"/usr/home/USER/openproject/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.2.0/bundler/gems/awesome_nested_set-7bd473e845e2" 
and reported that it was not allowed to get the current working 
directory, right?  That's odd.

I suspect that older versions of git ignored the error, used an empty 
string and went with that instead of an absolute path, but that's just a 
guess.

Was git perhaps started by bundler under a different user ID?  You could 
check that e.g. by printing the return value of geteuid(2).

"/bin/pwd -P" executed in the same directory under the same user ID as 
git should error out and report "Permission denied" as well.  Are the 
permissions bits and ACLs for that directory and its parents OK?

Thanks,
