That, together with the complexity of GIT_EXEC_DIR and path mangling 
problems, makes me take every opportunity to suggest we should build in 
most if not all of Git into the "git wrapper".

Granted, without completion scripts, the "git-" convention was nice.

Granted, with bash, Perl and even Python, you can rapidly prototype your 
thoughts (even if I often miss the power of C there).

But in the end, I'd say it makes lots of sense to have everything in one 
executable.

Ciao,
