BTW, git is not requiring a git- suffix, but a git-prefix. It 
does not matter for git what the git-<name here> script extension 
(or name) use.

It matters to the one typing git commands, because he has to type:

git <name here>

in order for git to invoke

git-<name here>

behind.

I really don't feel like git is doing anything bad here or it 
should change.

It matters, however, if one is allowed to type:

"git tellmethelotterynumbers"

instead of being forced to type

"git tellmethelotterynumbers.d"

You see, the latter version will give you the numbers spelled as:

16.d, 32.d, 18.d, 5.d, 11.d and 22.d

Or, it happens, the state lottery won't deny you the prize 
because, guess, the real numbers that were extracted were 16, 32, 
18, 5, 11 and 22.
