[Buildroot] [Bug 7016] Git issues in resulting buildroot tar

[brianclements]

>hi Brian,
>(Please don't top post)

Apologies, I'm new to mailing list etiquette. 

>In the menuconfig, in the toolchain menu, you can specify the toolchain
type. It is set to 'Buildroot' by >default, but you can specify 'external'
here. I then used the default proposed toolchain (Sourcery)

So I've found the fix. Selecting the external toolchain "Sourcery" (and WOW
is it much faster) with my other selections same as before of x86_64 and
git, was all I needed to get git to work. So I know what I need to do now to
get it to work for my uses. But I'm sure that still means there is a bug
somewhere in the buildroot toolchain. I'm not sure how to go about finding
it for you, but I'd be more then happy to test and reproduce things along
the way for you if you desire. Let me know,

Much Thanks!
Brian
