Resource editor + Git: "Remove files permanently" fails for deeply nested files

If I right-click a file under a resource node, which lies deeper than one directory level...

...and delete it permanently...

..the file entry in the .qrc file gets properly removed, and the file is deleted from disk.

However, the removal from Git fails, because the working directory for the git command is missing one level.
