Bug#741269: Git and not GIT



I might be nitpicking, but I believe it should be written like "Git",
and not like "GIT" - I don't have any strong backup to strengthen my
case other than that in "official" places only is written like git or
Git, but pretty much never like GIT. - and, also, it isn't an
abbreviation, right?

(And also, in the developers reference its never written like GIT.)

Osamus patch, with the above mentioned change attached.
