This is not correct. You only need git.cmd in the PATH and, IIRC, that is avoidable too if you use git from Emacs interfaces (VC and/or Magit). As a curiosity, I'll mention that MSYSGit git.exe doesn't depend on MSYS.dll (it is a "native" Windows executable.) It would be interesting to know which functionality is missing if you remove the stuff that depends on MSYS.dll from MSYSGit package.
