I'm not really enamoured with this direction at all. It means that any platform would have to potentially skip a version of git (resulting from the broken build from a wrapper that is not compilable) after the patches were applied, unless the patches for all of those platforms are included. Even adding a Makefile option would be similar. This should be an "Enable if supported" feature, not a default-or-broken, feature. At best, I'd have to monitor for the time where the patch is applied and hope I can figure out the wrapper changes (around my $DAYJOB) in time to make the same release. This seems a bit counter to a "keeping things compatible" philosophy. Maybe there's something I'm missing here.
