Comment (by andieq@…):

 What you mean "another thing"?

 This configure error only happens if the .git folder is missing, which
 happens if you download the source either via the "snapshot" option on the
 official git repo or use the "download zip" option on the github mirror.

 You now need to-do a "git init" to fix this.

 This was not needed before, so i simply wonder if the new check really
 wants to ensure a correctly init git repo or just looks for a current git
 version? I don't see new dependency's that would prevent configuring and
 compiling openWRT from a raw snapshot/zip without a explicit "git init"?

 {{{
 git submodule update --help
 fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /home)
 Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set).
 }}}

 thx
 Andy
