Sure.  I'll try it right now, since I happen to have some changes
I can push...

Whoops.  I can't push at all:  No /usr/bin/git-shell

  $ git-push sv
  Failed to exec /usr/bin/git-shell: No such file or directory at 
/usr/local/bin/sv_membersh line 135.
  fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
  [Exit 128]

So I temporarily changed /usr/local/bin/sv_membersh to invoke
/usr/local/bin/git-shell instead, then ran my test.
Then I changed it back (to the non-working state).

My test showed that the /usr/local/bin tools do work properly.
