Dear diary, on Mon, Nov 07, 2005 at 06:27:48PM CET, I got a letter where Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> said that...

Well, just to clarify - I'm personally not opposed to it, as long as it gets done in some timeframe where it won't drastically break backwards compatibility (that is, not in 1.0.1 or such, but e.g. at some right moment before 1.0 or at the start of the next development series whenever that happens), and as long as I get a way to get the path of the git commands by a single fork().
