I recognized that '.' is included in the PATH in /etc/profile.
I don't think this is a good idea. At least it bit me once when
I expected to run /bin/git but instead /git/./git was chosen.
Shouldn't we remove '.' from the PATH?

In my experience, Windows users (not Mac users forced to use Windows)
_expect_ "." to be in the PATH.

Ah, what a crazy and dangerous world Windows is ;)

Yes, and I'd rather not disappoint those expectations.

Regarding the tclsh thing:  IMHO to unwaste space, we should add a

	#!/bin/sh
	exec tclsh84 "$@"

instead.  MinGW does not have symlinks, and we should not put more space
to waste than Windows does already, by copying files around (yes, the
repository will not care, but the working tree will).

I agree and pushed the following to mob

faeb4e3df9fb7c853dd1a46d6942776d4a743545

I forced a non-fast-forward of mob. Is this ok? Apparently it's allowed.

Yes, it is allowed exactly for this purpose.  When you want to redo/undo 
commits.

Another question related to mob. How do I need to setup /git/.git/config
to be able to push to git's mob?

My understanding is that the GitMe installer already sets up a remote 
named "mob".

	$ git push mob

It automatically pushes the "master" branch to "mob".  If you have to 
force the push, you'll have to do this:

	$ git push mob +master:mob

But please avoid this when possible, since you might well overwrite other 
people's work.
