I'd vote against it: As of now, I can perfectly do

export PATH=$PATH:/whereever/my/git/is git-init-db

which would not work with this patch. I don't mind the templating mechanism per se, though. It should make life easier for new bees. Let's just make sure git-init-db is usable without installing anything.

Ciao, Dscho
