According to dustin, that switch (git-command to git command) is prior to 1.0 (2005), so, that would mean we only support 1.0+ version of git. That seams reasonable ...

I'd like to be sure I'm understanding this ticket correctly: is the concern that e.g. /usr/bin/git-checkout will not exist in git-1.6.0 or beyond? And that the 'checkout' subcommand of the /usr/bin/git executable is the current preferred way to perform a checkout? And that the subcommand form has been available since git-1.0 ?
If so, this sounds like a good change. Just make sure the docs clearly state which versions of Git are supported (and the NEWS file should indicate whichever versions of Git we no longer support).
