You must not get a lot of spaces in your pathnames.

That usually doesn't happen in the kernel tree (which is what the OP
wants to follow).

I think you want
those last two lines to be:

        export PATH="$gitpath:$PATH"
        exec "$gitpath/git" "$@"

Typical lazy shell programmer. :) :)

Hey, I said "untested" :) But yeah, you're right. Your syntax is
correct, every time I write such a wrapper I try to remember it...
