And that means that git-send-pack will always do the same thing, for any host it is given. If one host needs a special PATH, that's an effing pain. However, Kees Cook points out that it's driver error: I set up my PATH in .bash_profile, and if I just do it in .bashrc instead it all works. Danke, Linus
