I unfortunately don't have a macOS system to test with, and I've
compiled with both gcc and clang on my Debian system and, as you
mentioned, it doesn't fail there.
I have a guess about what the problem might be. Can you try this patch
and see if it fixes things?

Subject: [PATCH] repository: pre-initialize hash algo pointer
There are various git subcommands (among them, clone) which don't set up
the repository but end up needing to have information about the hash
algorithm in use. In the future, we can add a command line option for
this or read it from the configuration, but until we're ready to expose
that functionality to the user, simply initialize the repository
structure to use the current hash algorithm, SHA-1.
