If by "git-web" you mean "gitweb", the git web interface in Perl, this is simply not true. From the commit 25691fb (gitweb: Use --git-dir parameter instead of setting $ENV{'GIT_DIR'}) _at least_ gitweb uses "git <comd>" and not "git-cmd" form. And this commit was on 28 August 2006, so in March 2008 gitweb didn't use git<DASH> form...
Check your facts, please...
