If I remember correctly libcurl.so startup time was the reason it's
split out of "git" binary, so we can't just merge everything into one
(*). But yeah merging some back is not a bad idea.

(*) but maybe "git" binary has gotten much slower overall, or
libcurl.so much faster that it does not matter anymore. That problem
was like 10 years ago.
