Comment (by johnt):

 The machine I am using has an old version of git installed and I cant
 upgrade it at the moment so the following line in a builder wont work
 unless I use the workaround listed above:

 Git( repourl='/path/to/repo', branch='testing', mode='clobber' )

 I dont think its necessary to make a change to the code so long as there
 is a note in the documentation stating that there is a minimum version of
 Git required for some features and possibly a link to the workaround if
 people need it.
