The old style commands should be in the execdir (e.g., /usr/local/libexec/git-core). That directory should be placed at the beginning of the PATH when you run "git cvsimport".

If you run "git --exec-path", what directory does it print? If you go to that directory, is it filled with dashed git commands?
