Pass and Centos 7

It's a pity not having pass packages in EPEL7 :-(

The following patch supports Git versions < 1.8.5, i.e.,
lacking -C option.
The approach is to add a wrapper to run the Git commands:
1. For Git >= 1.8.5 the wrapper uses the -C option.
2. For Git < 1.8.5, the wrapper emulates the -C option using pushd/popd.

Regarding the issue with pass requiring tree >= v1.7.0 for
the find command, this patch follows the following approach:
1. For tree >= 1.7.0, run tree with --matchdirs/--ignore-case options.
2. For tree < 1.7.0, warn users with a message in stderr and run tree
    _without_ --matchdirs/--ignore-case options.

What do you think?
