Re: [PATCH] GIT_TRACE: show which built-in/external commands are executed

P.S.: Now we only have to convert all "git-" invocations in the scripts to
"git " invocations so we can benefit from it. But that would mean two 
forks instead of one for the non-builtins. Hmm.

Why do we not use this policy:

git-* is guaranteed to be the normal command without any strange alias
expansion, default parameters or something else a script does not like
to be changed in the commands. So all scripts use git-*, this will
prevent a double exec. The path to git-* should be obtained using git
--exec-path in the beginnig.

That still leaves my problem: GIT_TRACE=1 on scripts is incomplete.
