In the 'NEWS.Debian.gz of the git-core package you can read the following: ---[ NEWS.Debian.gz ]------------------------------------------------- git-core (1:1.6.0-1) experimental; urgency=low Most of the programs are now installed outside the default $PATH, except for "git", "gitk" and some server side programs that need to be accessible for technical reasons. Invoking a git subcommand as "git-xyzzy" from the command line has been deprecated since early 2006 (and officially announced in the 1.5.4 release notes); using the "git-xyzzy" form in scripts after adding the output from "git --exec-path" to the $PATH is still supported in this release, but users are again strongly encouraged to adjust their scripts to use the "git xyzzy" form, as this support might be dropped in later releases. -- Gerrit Pape <pape@smarden.org> Sun, 24 Aug 2008 22:31:44 +0000 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hmm, hope this info helps you. Do not know yet in which version it then finally got dropped. Bests Salvatore
