This workaround initially considered a host running git < v2.14, which does not look realistic if we consider the fairly recent distros in SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS. Even in older build machines/distros, one can use buildtools to provide git: $ ./x86_64-buildtools-extended-nativesdk-standalone-5.0.sh (...) $ which git (...)/buildtools/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/git $ git --version git version 2.44.0 It is harmless, but still a bit outdated, so remove it.
