Well, it was sheer stupidity of mine.

Let's stop this and apply this patch instead.  The patch text is obvious
so I won't quote.

Subject: [PATCH] Revert "Build-in "git-shell""

This reverts commit daa0cc9a92c9c2c714aa5f7da6d0ff65b93e0698.
It was a stupid idea to do this; when run as a log-in shell,
it is spawned with argv[0] set to "-git-shell", so the usual
name-based dispatch would not work to begin with.
