It does not make sense for these placeholder scripts to depend on Python
just because the real scripts do. At the example of Git for Windows, we
would not even be able to see those warnings as it does not ship with
Python. So just use plain shell scripts instead.
Yeah, this seems like an obvious improvement. I think we got here
because the originals issued a warning but kept working, and then it was
slowly whittled down to remove the "working" part.

OTOH, it is not really hurting much, so I do not mind keeping them
around for another 3 years (or more) just to catch any stragglers.
Yup, let's queue it and remove it in a few years.
Thanks.
