Please stop filling up my /usr/local/bin :)

Just have one 'git' script, which looks in /usr/local/libexec/git for further scripts and backends programs like write-tree and diff-cache.

Also, please don't assume that "." is in PATH. I think there is at least one invocation of commit-id with that assumption, in git-pasky-0.6.3.
