The bottom line is that excluding Perl and Python support from git
will make it only usable for automated shell scripting.

Interactive parts require Perl or Python so there is nothing to be
gained from breaking POLA for existing users of the git FreeBSD
package or git software in general as any random tutorial out there
may not work for FreeBSD anymore.

For emphasis, this is suboptimal at best...
