[From my comment on the corresponding Ubuntu bug: 
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/326460>]

git exports LESS=FRSX if the LESS environment variable is not already 
set. The -X (--no-init) is required to let -F (--quit-if-one-screen) 
work sensibly, but breaks mouse wheel scrolling.

To work around this, you can disable both of those options by exporting 
LESS=RS. You will gain mouse wheel scrolling, but the disadvantage is 
that you will always have to explicitly quit the pager, even if it is 
displaying less than a screenfull.

If you think the default should be changed, consider talking to the 
upstream developers: <http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#git>.
