Yes, but why does replace.py do this? Will every script every time try to
run git? Why? I don't want to update or check my installation all the time,
I just want to USE it in peace.

No, I don't have it and don't need it momentarily, as far as nightly works.
I will have to install it at a later time, but not today.
How can I block such a message? Or how can I make PWB understand that I am
not a git user and I want to use the script? This is not only litter, it
wastes my time as well.

That's the third one. :-) Well, you can ruin the home of a man and tell him
it's a good opportunity to build a new one... I have been learning all my
life and I always have more opportunities than possibilities (time), so I
didn't really want to learn something that had worked well previously.
Anyway, I will have to learn it if I want to contribute to the framework
ever again, but now I want to use it. It was enogh for the forst time to
learn months before I could really use it.
