Perhaps, /usr/sbin would be a better place, as it is intended only for
system administration binaries.
I'd argue that git-shell isn't *exclusively* for root, which is the
criteria for sbin.
I don't think that your criteria is correct. mysqld is also not exclusively
for root as you can run it on a non-privilege port, yet, it is placed in
/usr/sbin. Placing in /usr/sbin does not mean that users do not have access
to it, but that those binaries are not run by users from their command line.
