Git 1.6.0 was certainly a lot more controversial than the change in
Git 2.0, as the end-users never expected Git will change even with
ample pre-warning. We originally had all the "git-foo" in $PATH
since 2005 when Git started, and we announced that we'll stop doing
so in the release notes to Git 1.5.4 with instructions on how to
adjust the scripts that use "git-foo" form. Even then end-users
(back then they were a lot smaller population---we are talking about
Aug 2008) complained quite loudly.
