In case somebody is thinking about 36e5e70e0f40 (Start deprecating
"git-command" in favor of "git command"), that is a somewhat different
issue.  What Linus suggested is not installing git-foo link for built-in
commands _anywhere_ on the filesystem.  Not just "out of user's PATH".
That is not deprecating dash form but removing the support for it.  We
need to give ample time for users to adjust to such a change.

A little note on this one. I've been using git without builtin links
for a while with my git-box port. There are still some builtin fixups
needed. And because execv_git_cmd() always uses dash form, so it's
impossible to use vanilla git without builtin links.

By the way, what is the status of your git-box port?
