Subject: scripts make a bad assumption about which perl has git
I routinely work on a mac with git installed from macports. Macports has its own perl, which is where the port of git installs Git.pm Because Git.pm isn't available via CPAN, I need to install Git-CPAN-Patch against that Macports' perl. Because macports perl isn't my default, it's not the first perl in my $PATH. git-cpan-* and git-backpan-* use the "/usr/bin/env perl" convention on their shebang line. I'd contend that this is wrong and that they should be using the perl they were installed with. ...does that seem reasonable? Best, Jesse

That seems quite reasonable. Fix implemented in v0.1.5 (on its way to CPAN).
