  1. Un-deprecate Git CMD 

    The reason why Git CMD was deprecated: we originally thought it would be
_impossible_ to override the default where running `git show` in a
directory containing, say, a `git.cmd` script would _not_ run the
intended `git.exe`, which was considered a security issue.

As of git-for-windows/MINGW-packages@82172388b
(git: prevent Git CMD from picking up git.exe in the local directory,
2018-11-22), we however _do_ have a way to prevent this vulnerability.

So let's just remove the "(Deprecated)" label from `Git CMD` because the
reason for it no longer exists.
