It seems to me that this patch would not do anything different, but 
with less code change, if setup_path() would set argv0_path, and not a 
new function was introduced.

This is just to play a safe game. I had it that way, but I decided to have
the call to the new git_set_argv0_path() early in git.c because the call
to setup_path() in git.c is very late, and it could happen that we call
system_path() (which needs argv0_path) before that. Although I didn't audit
the code whether this really happens.

Well, okay... I would have rather seen it not change (since there was no 
bug to fix), or as a separate patch, but it's Junio's call.
