$ type --all git-diff
bash: type: git-diff: not found
$ echo $PATH
/home/martin/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games

there is _no other_ git-diff. It's bash magic. See
http://popey.com/command_not_found

Note that all the key commands work. I clone, diff, commit, push,
merge daily on this machine.

Might be. Maybe ~/bin got cleaned up but not libexec? Or the bisecting
back-and-forth left stray bits in ~/bin?
