Only put bin-wrappers in the PATH (not GIT_EXEC_PATH), to emulate the default installed user environment, and ensure all the programs run correctly in such an environment. This is now the default, although it can be overridden with a --with-dashes test option when running tests.

 You can also set the GIT_TEST_INSTALLED environment variable to
