If you run

    $ cd t && sh ./t0014-alias.sh -d && cat trash*.t0014-alias/output

you'll see two "prepare_cmd" logged, because you added one to
prepare_shell_cmd() and another to prepare_cmd().  If you were
tracing something that uses prepare_git_cmd() on Windows, you would
not see any trace output, on the other hand, I would suspect (I do
not do Windows so this is from code inspection only).

Perhaps squashing something like this is sufficient?
