python is a community module, -PallExtensions does not build
anything in community as far as I know.
The close equivalent in community land is the -PcommunityRelease
profile, which is not normally used.

However you have a point, if anyone comes and wants to try out
the communityRelease profile, probably in order to add a new
module to the nightly community build, he/she will need git
around. This could indeed be annoying, though it seems that
lately only core developers are adding community modules (funny uh?)
