There is still the option to rename it for Debian only, without changing it upstream. Not really nice, but possible and used in the past, IIRC. > Qingning Huo suggested using diversions to make /usr/bin/git a little > selector script that lets the admin & user choose between git-the-shell > and git-the-scm. This sounds good to me, who objects? Aarrgghh! :-) That's what alternatives are for and people already objected for good reasons. Please not. Either rename the executable to /usr/bin/git-the-scm (or whatever) or conflict with the other git. Or ask the other git people to rename their binary. Maybe git-the-scm is (or will be) in wider use than git-the-shell, so it might be OK to rename the more "obscure" executable.
