I agree with this decision.

This doesn't fit into my view of Git for Windows' users
For some users that have the Administrator right, it's the default
location if they grant the Administrator right for the installer.
For those poor souls that works for enterprise companies, and thoses
that not feel comfortable give Administrator right to _another_
installer, the installer will install into (hopeful, I type it right):
%USERPROFILE%/AppData/Local/Programs/Git
I think it's better to offer SH_EXE as an OPTION, let user specify it
as will. And we'll search in PATH if it's not specified, fallback to
2 default value if not found.
