Btw, with the few built-in patches I've sent, it's now

	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ du -s /home/torvalds/libexec/git-core
	27876	/home/torvalds/libexec/git-core

so they're worth about 5.5M of disk-space.

Of course, without debugging and with -Os, the difference is much smaller, 
and libexec ends up being "just" 8.6MB in size. There are still a number 
of trivial programs that could be made builtin.

Optimally, I suspect just things like 'git-daemon' and the remote helpers 
would be actual separate binaries.
