I don't observe this on Ubuntu 16.04. When are you seeing this? autogen.sh? 
gitlog-to-changelog? emacs-repository-version-git?

I assume you have git installed; is it on a network directory that is flaky, or 
perhaps something is setting PATH to a value that does not include the directory 
where git is?
