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

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

Ok, I see what you mean.

This actually affects all scripts which are called as git-foo instead
of git foo (but built-in commands show up anyway). So I'd add a
warning to the documentation in which cases GIT_TRACE will not show
that a command is executed.
In the git repository I found 47 shell scripts (git-* without the
header file) which would be affected. Searching for all occurences of
git-(one of those shell-scripts) I found 50 lines of code which use
it. If there is any interest in changing this I can try to change
this.
