We normally print full command line, including the program and its
argument. When git_cmd is set, we have a special code path to run the
right "git" program and child_process.argv[0] will not contain the
program name anymore. As a result, we print just the command
arguments.

I thought it was a regression when the code was refactored and git_cmd
added, but apparently it's not. git_cmd mode was introduced before
tracing was added in 8852f5d704 (run_command(): respect GIT_TRACE -
2008-07-07) so it's more like an oversight in 8852f5d704.

Fix it, print the program name "git" in git_cmd mode. It's nice to have
now. But it will be more important later when we start to print env
variables too, in shell syntax. The lack of a program name would look
confusing then.
