What I've been working on was to:
* have git-cvsimport.perl in the source
* install it as $(bindir)/git-cvsimport
* simplify 'git' (whose source is of course in 'git.sh') to
only do:
cmd="$1"; shift; exec "git-$cmd" ${1+"$@"}
Naturally, the rewrite of git-cvsimport in shell or C would look
the same to git.
One potential downside (for people who consider this a downside)
is that you cannot easily run uninstalled, but you already
cannot run tools/git-applymbox and git-cherry-pick uninstalled
anyway, and I do not think it is such a big deal.
