Greetings Johannes! I was trying to solve isse #406[1]. I have understood what we are trying to achieve for the most part, but I still need some confirmation. As far as my understanding goes, here is what I have inferred(forgive me if I am wrong anywhere): We had "dashed" versions of present day commands such as <<git add>> in the old times. Now, whenever we call scripts whose "dashed" version exists, it will sort of link the "dashed" version as well for I guess historical reasons? ;) And hence this takes up quite some time to link those built-ins especially in Windows. Therefore, our aim is to remove that option of linking the "dashed" forms by default. One thing I don't understand is, where is the <<libexec/git-core/>> directory? And what exactly do we mean by "built-ins" here(does it refer to the "dashed" commands)? Thanks, Shourya Shukla [1]: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/issues/406
