Yes, setting GIT_EXEC_PATH fixed the problem, thanks.

I just tried git-bundle in a repository where I just committed 1 file, the previous commit is several weeks old.

git-bundle create test.bdl HEAD --since=1.day.ago ==>> pack with 1531 objects git-bundle create test.bdl HEAD ^HEAD~1 ==>> pack with 3 objects

But, both should only have 3 objects. So, I think the boundary marking with date limiting still has a problem. Apparently, every blob supporting the included commits are included in the pack, even if those blobs are also part of the pack's prerequisites.
