"/usr/bin" being smaller.
Actually, this is acceptable since I set gitexecdir to $(bindir) in my
make invocation.
*BUT* the recent discussion of not creating the hardlinks in
git/core/libexec, introducing obnoxious warnings when using the dashed
forms, and eventually having the git binary error when invoked as a
dashed command is NOT acceptable. The discussion that happened in
November and December 2006 was only about about moving the executables
out of /usr/bin, not the completely disabling of the dashed forms for
those users and distributions that want them.
