Well, the patch is shorter :-)
Joking aside, it's a good question. I guess I prefer the patch because:
1. It's been tested, it works. I haven't tried the script yet, so I
don't know if it works.
2. Git historically doesn't use bash, so the script would have to be
rewritten in Perl or plain sh or tcl or something.
3. It's less brittle than the wrapper script if we decide to have Git
pass more params to OpenSSH.
4. It's "more native".
I don't know if these are compelling enough reasons, though.
