do people use the 'git' command?

What good is the 'git' command? It's a shortcut to run the "git-$FUNCTION-script" programs, but it doesnt do the "git-$FUNCTION" programs. It just doesnt seem worth its inode, to me. And it doesnt seem worth the pain to distribution maintainers (like me) to avoid the naming conflict with GNU Interactive Tools' /usr/bin/git.

Can we drop the "git" program?
