With holy Penguin pee blessings, I would send in a "flag day" patch sometime before July 4th weekend that:

 - renames most of the git-*-script to git-*-cmd;
 - renames git-whatchanged to git-whatchanged-cmd;
 - renames two misnamed git-*-script to git-*-helper
without any backward compatibility warts.

Unless people object and propose good transition plans, that is.

This message is for people who uses bare GIT and who writes Porcelain. Please consider yourselves warned ;-).
