Hm, interesting point. I don't know. I don't use TRAMP because it was
too slow for me in the couple of times I've tried.

magit/lisp/magit-git.el does have this custom variable though, which
this patch didn't change:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(defcustom magit-remote-git-executable "git"
  "The Git executable used by Magit on remote machines.
On the local host `magit-git-executable' is used instead.
Consider customizing `tramp-remote-path' instead of this
option."
  :package-version '(magit . "3.2.0")
  :group 'magit-process
  :type 'string)
#+END_SRC elisp

So I'd say it's possible that my patch doesn't affect whether Magit
works from TRAMP…

Thanks
Thiago
