I can live with this "weak (D3)". 99% of Git users probably use
installed Git instance anyway and most of the rest are likely to be Git
developers testing new code who can do this extra environment setup.

You earlier had to set two environment variables anyway but you
have added another.  I do not see what's weak about it.

I don't usually use the git wrapper so I got away without setting
GIT_EXEC_PATH yet. ;-)

This is the config.mak I use everywhere:

-- snip --
bindir = $(shell pwd)
template_dir = $(bindir)/templates/blt
GIT_PYTHON_DIR = $(bindir)/compat
-- snap --

No environment variable.

Ciao,
