Your path, being
PATH=~/bin:/home/{myname}/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/g
ames:/usr/games:/usr/sbin:/sbin
puts your own bin in front of where the system-defined git would be located. So yes, the new install will interfere. As long as you remove the git install from ~/bin and /home/{myname}/bin (are these not the same?), you should go back to using the system's git.
