I'm not sure which command you're looking for?

git.exe exists only in Git/bin (old-style) and Git/cmd.  Where both
exist they'll have exactly the same version of git.exe in them.

I think using Git/cmd only to find git.exe is fine; I'm pretty sure
it's always existed there even in older releases of Git for Windows, an
d will continue to do so going forward.

You definitely don't need Git/usr/bin unless you want to find all the
UNIX tools.  Git.exe is not there.
