Hello,

It is different because Notmuch is both an external executable and an
Emacs library. Git, OTOH, does not ship with an Elisp library.

However, I think it is a bug if Emacs Magit does not work with git in
profile. We should modify the source so both magit-git-executable and
magit-gitk-executable point to those from inputs.

I suggest to open a new bug report about it, WDYT?
