first, here are the executables under /usr/libexec/git-core/ that
are unreferenced by that web page, but that should be fine as
almost all of them would be considered underlying helpers or

unclear on its status, right?):

I don't think there's anything unclear about git subtree's status.
It's in contrib/ within the source, so it's not part of the core git
suite.  Some distributions (Fedora being one of them) ship a
git-subtree package to provide it for users who want it.

  not true, "git-subtree" is part of fedora's lowest-level
"git-core" package.
