Just guessing based on generic git knowledge here: If you build in a sibling directory of the .git directory, git should "see" the GITDIR, and it should work. Where is your build directory relative to the GITDIR? I suspect you could also set GITDIR=/path/to/python/source/.git in make's process environment, and do "make patchcheck" outside of the Python source tree successfully.
