Probably good material to discuss during the next cycle.

As a totally unscientific sanity check, I asked Google to show these
since Nov 13, 2011:

    [git repo-config] vs [git config]: 136 vs 232

    [git peek-remote] vs [git ls-remote]: 62 vs 133

    [git tar-tree] vs [git archive]: 73 vs 189

    [git lost-found] vs [git fsck --lost-found]: 96 vs 83

So I think 1, 2, and 4 are OK to ship in whatever version that comes
after the upcoming 1.8.5, but we might have to hold onto lost-found
a bit longer.  The command does show a deprecation warning, so there
is nothing to change at this point.

Thanks.
