Oh, then it doesn't quite do what I thought it does.

I haven't noticed that we have something like that.  FWIW, our
documentation CI job runs it already.

And indeed it can be easily extended to check 'command-list.txt' as
well, but then it will find some other builtins not included in
'command-list.txt', namely:

  bisect--helper env--helper fsck-objects init-db merge-ours
  merge-recursive merge-subtree remote-ext remote-fd submodule--helper

I think it makes sense not to include the '*--helper' commands, or
'fsck-objects' and 'init-db', but I'm not sure about the others.

OTOH, it won't help if we add a new git-foo script and forgot to
include it in 'command-list.txt'.
