There is another side to this bug: Only /usr/bin/git is a hardlink. All the other files in /usr/bin/ are _copies_.
I suggest, that all files in /usr/bin be replaced by symlinks to /usr/lib/git-core If you need some shell to do it: set -e cd usr/bin mv git ../lib/git-core ln -s ../lib/git-core/git . for i in * do if cmp -s $i ../lib/git-core/$i then ln -sf ../lib/git-core/$i . fi done this should solve both problems.
