### Please describe the problem. `git-annex log` fails to run if git is an older version. ### What steps will reproduce the problem? `git-annex log` :) i somewhat thought that this would work even if i had an older version of git because the standalone release would use the bundled git release... ### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system? 5.20150610+gitg608172f-1~ndall+1 on Debian Wheezy. ### Please provide any additional information below.
