Sorry for the late response (this was first reported months ago!)
I tested this by installing a bogus git at the front of my PATH that always fails will let ./autogen.sh --no-git work without git (well, mostly tested it, to the point where it got past the gnulib-tool invocation, but on Fedora 14, gettext 0.18 also depends on git, so autogen.sh didn't complete; I suspect that it would completely work on cygwin which still has gettext 0.17, but that platform takes a lot longer to run a test on a patch like this).
ACK,
Thanks; pushed. Actually, I re-updated .gnulib to pick up a couple other related patches on the way, including a fix for 'make check' if you are using glibc 2.13 (gnulib had a bug in its strerror_r-posix module), picking up these changes on top of my original mail.
bootstrap: minor portability fixes bootstrap: support --no-git option strerror_r-posix: work with glibc 2.13 uN_strstr: New unit tests. Make uN_strstr functions O(n) worst-case. Prepare for faster uN_strstr functions. test-malloca: unset MALLOC_PERTURB_ to speed up test ignore-value: remove dependency on stdint maint.mk: adjust variable name to be consistent with other gl_ vars ChangeLog: remove duplicate entry maint.mk: make "check" depend on public-submodule-commit by default mbfile, mbiter: Complete change from 2008-12-21.
