git request-pull is broken

[mripard]

Describe the bug

The git request-pull command doesn't work on Fedora Silverblue 38.

To Reproduce Please describe the steps needed to reproduce the bug:

1. Run git request-pull

The output is:

$ git request-pull 
git: 'request-pull' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Expected behavior

With Fedora 38, the (correct) output is:

$ git request-pull 
usage: git request-pull [options] start url [end]

    -p                    show patch text as well

OS version:

This can be reproduced in a pristine Silverblue container:

$ podman run -it quay.io/fedora-ostree-desktops/silverblue:38 /bin/bash
bash-5.2# git request-pull 
git: 'request-pull' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

[travier]

git request-pull is part of the git package which we have excluded from the image as it brings unwanted dependencies (Perl): https://pagure.io/workstation-ostree-config/blob/main/f/fedora-common-ostree.yaml#_20

$ rpm -qf /usr/libexec/git-core/git-request-pull
git-2.41.0-1.fc38.x86_64

You can:

• install the full git package in a toolbox and use this command from there
• or overlay the git package on your system.
