This is connected to this issue:

Ssh is not loading your environment by default when sending a command without going to interactive mode.

good solution is the one with .ssh/environment file:

in /etc/ssh/sshd_config add:

PermitUserEnvironment yes

Then just create .ssh/ directory and dump envronment to .ssh/enviroment:

cd ~/
mkdir .ssh
env > .ssh/environment

Restart SSH

/etc/init.d/sshd restart

Now when you do this from your local machine:

ssh you@server.com  "which git-upload-pack"

you s'd get

/usr/local/bin/git-upload-pack

and git clone s'd work.
