[issue1246] hg convert w/ git 1.6.0rc1

[Chris Webb]

New submission from Chris Webb <chris at arachsys.com>:

The first release candidate of git 1.6.0 is out, and from this version, git has
finally stopped polluting the bin namespace with over a hundred git- binaries!
It's still possible to access things like git-ls-remote in lib[exec]/git-core/
but the intended interface is 'git ls-remote' with just git(1) being in the
PATH.

git.py from hg convert uses the old git-SUBCOMMAND syntax, and so won't work
out of the box with git 1.6.0. The attached trivial patch fixes this. (Using
the 'git SUBCOMMAND' form as per this patch should also work fine on earlier
git releases.)
