Re: [msysGit] [PATCH/RFC] alias: use run_command api to execute aliases

But I'm kind of of two minds here myself, but for a slightly different 
reason: I think Git for Windows SHOULD use cmd.exe to execute scripts. 
We should be able to lose the msys-environment and still have the basic 
functionality working. In that sense, this is a step in the wrong 
direction. But I'd rather have all code use the same code-path to 
execute scripts, and make a bit switch to cmd.exe together with porting 
all supplied scripts to batch-files some time in the future.

Okay, strike my objections, I agree now. Feel free to apply!

FWIW, I agree with Erik's reasoning, too.
Thanks, both.
