make-authors.pl script not compatible with being a submodule.

make-authors.pl checks that .git exists and is a directory before
getting the git log - but when a repo is checked out as a submodule of a
larger repository, .git is not a directory, it's just a text file.  This
can cause make-authors.pl to terminate inappropriately.
