It's a shortcut to run the "git-$FUNCTION-script" programs, but it doesnt do the "git-$FUNCTION" programs. It just doesnt seem worth its inode, to me. And it doesnt seem worth the pain to distribution maintainers (like me) to avoid the naming conflict with GNU Interactive Tools' /usr/bin/git. Can we drop the "git" program? diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -42,7 +42,7 @@ CC?=gcc AR?=ar INSTALL?=install -SCRIPTS=git git-apply-patch-script git-merge-one-file-script git-prune-script \ +SCRIPTS=git-apply-patch-script git-merge-one-file-script git-prune-script \ git-pull-script git-tag-script git-resolve-script git-whatchanged \ git-deltafy-script git-fetch-script git-status-script git-commit-script \ git-log-script git-shortlog git-cvsimport-script diff --git a/git b/git deleted file mode 100755 --- a/git +++ /dev/null @@ -1,4 +0,0 @@ -#!/bin/sh -cmd="git-$1-script" -shift -exec $cmd "$@" -- Sebastian Kuzminsky
