Yes, `git-shell` is not a built-in, that's why. It is added as `PROGRAM_OBJS` in the `Makefile`, and it has its own small `cmd_main()`. On purpose: the idea for `git-shell` is to serve as a pseudo login shell for `git fetch`/`git push` to do the minimum amount of work to ensure that only `git receive-pack`, `git upload-pack` and `git upload-archive` commands are allowed. Everything else is blocked. So yes, it is installed into `bin/`, expressly so, and it is not a hard-linked copy of `bin/git`. > > $(RM) "$$bindir/$$p" && \ > > - if test -z "$(SKIP_DASHED_BUILT_INS)"; \ > > - then \ > > - test -n "$(INSTALL_SYMLINKS)" && \ > > - ln -s "git$X" "$$bindir/$$p" || \ > > - { test -z "$(NO_INSTALL_HARDLINKS)" && \ > > - ln "$$bindir/git$X" "$$bindir/$$p" 2>/dev/null || \ > > - ln -s "git$X" "$$bindir/$$p" 2>/dev/null || \ > > - cp "$$bindir/git$X" "$$bindir/$$p" || exit; }; \ > > - fi \ > > + test -n "$(INSTALL_SYMLINKS)" && \ > > + ln -s "git$X" "$$bindir/$$p" || \ > > + { test -z "$(NO_INSTALL_HARDLINKS)" && \ > > + ln "$$bindir/git$X" "$$bindir/$$p" 2>/dev/null || \ > > + ln -s "git$X" "$$bindir/$$p" 2>/dev/null || \ > > + cp "$$bindir/git$X" "$$bindir/$$p" || exit; }; \ > > OK. $(install_bindir_programs) is the set of programs that we want to > install; that makes sense.
