shell: add missing initialization of argv0_path

Dima Sharov · gitster · commit 2d9932cf67a8 · 2011-05-05T09:32:28.000-07:00
According to c6dfb39 (remote-curl: add missing initialization of argv0_path, 2009-10-13), stand-alone programs (non-builtins) must call git_extract_argv0_path(argv[0]) in order to help builds that derive the installation prefix at runtime. Without this call, the program segfaults (or raises an assertion failure).
