Hi Git Team,

I have Python2 and Python3 on my system. We are deprecating Python2 ASAP. Is there an easy way to force git to use Python3 only? Both are in /usr/bin. python has a symbolic link to python2 right now, but we are probably going to change that. I already have modified settings in config.mak.uname PYTHON_PATH = /usr/bin/python3.

Thanks, Randall
