despite several attempts, I didn't manage to build those Perl libraries on MacOS X, which means that Git is broken on that platform if sendEmailSupport is enabled. That situation is somewhat unsatisfactory. Does anyone have an idea how to remedy those build errors?
The problem appears to be provoked because MacOS has a case insensitive filesystem. While it is trying to build Net::SMTP, the build script correctly runs 'perl Makefile.pl', but then tries to invoke ./configure, which succeeds, even though the script is called ./Configure. This script starts with #!/usr/local/bin/perl, which doesn't work. Does adding patchPhase = "chmod a-x ./Configure"; to the NetSMTP descriptor in perl-packages.nix allow it to build for you?
