Description:
The "git daemon user" in /etc/passwd is allowed to login with bash shell.
Is this intentional or is it be better to disallow login by setting /usr/bin/nologin as login shell, as it is done for other daemon users (e.g. the systemd-* users)?

Additional info:
* package version(s): git 2.3.0-1
* config and/or log files etc.: See https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/git.install?h=packages/git#n6

Steps to reproduce:
$ grep "git daemon user" /etc/passwd
git:x:997:997:git daemon user:/:/bin/bash
This task depends upon
