In the old days prior to Wireshark 3.0, one could visit 
https://www.wireshark.org/download/src/all-versions/, download the source 
tarball of interest (e.g., wireshark-2.6.6.tar.xz), extract it, modify it as 
necessary and build both a custom Windows installer and a custom RHEL7 rpm.

Beginning with Wireshark 3.0 though, it no longer seems possible to create a 
customized rpm from the source tarball as before.  Is this so, or am I missing 
something?

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

If it is the case, then why is that?  Would it be possible for the project to 
restore the ability to build rpm's from the source tarball like it was possible 
to do prior to Wireshark 3.0?

Thanks.
