Maybe, but it's not a step that I'm interested in. I don't think it
changes the desirability of the patch I sent. They are independent.

Personally I don't think the hint should be here at all (it should be
obvious that git-shell(1) is the place to read about the login
behavior of an account with shell set to git-shell), but I don't mind
as long as it's possible to override the message.
