Nope.  It was not just because we could.  It was an explicit request by 
more than one person that we do not put 110+ commands into /usr/bin/.

As for your argument that it should be worth for the users: if you are 
really thinking about the users, and not just yourself, you will see that 
the receive.denyCurrentBranch change is required.

BTW there is a timeline.  Junio said already that it will be in 1.7 and 
not earlier.

Ciao,
Dscho
