Heads up: git-1.6.1-1.fc11 moves most git-* commands out of PATH

Greetings,

Git-1.6.1 is headed to rawhide and among the changes is that we now
follow upstream defaults and install the majority of git-* commands in
%{_libexecdir}/git-core/ instead of %{_bindir}.  If you have scripts
that call git-* binaries, you should either change them to use the
"git foo" style or add %{_libexecdir}/git-core to PATH.  Git provides
a convenient method to do this:

    PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH

This update and path change is only going to rawhide.
