As James Cameron already wrote, I had to 'yum install git' to be able to
do the git-clone.
This also pulled in perl for a total of > 15 MB. No problem for me since
I was at home

I was going to suggest to just tar up the modified directories and then
use a script similar
to what you provided for the git case in order to make it easier for
3rd party testers,
but James beat me to it.
