The man pages are something that needs careful consideration.  Some
man programs use the PATH as a hint to figure out which man page to
show --- i.e., if /usr/local/bin/git-log is in the path then it's
likely that the man page you want to show is the one in
/usr/local/man/man1/git-log.1.

If we don't install git-log in the PATH, for some setups people won't
be able to see the man page for git-log.
