This is invalid. The format line *has* to be the first non-empty,
non-comment line.
As Philip mentioned, though, if this is for 2.2.x, you should use format
60, so no conversion is needed.

You don't need those, if there's nothing in them.
That may be the only issue with the layout. The program that is failing
to start is git, which is a different issue.

LyX Layout File Problem
I am trying to load a custom LyX layout file but I get the following
error when I try to set the Document Class for the document. I have
reconfigured many times and restarted LyX many time. The error message
reads as follows. Is there a way to determine why exactly LyX is
complaining about the layout file?
Thanks,
Ken

Error: Could not load class
Due to some error in it, the layout file:
lknote_test
could not be loaded. A default textclass with default
layouts will be used. LyX will not be able to produce
correct output.
