I agree that this does not constitute a big burden.

Linux support in the CMake system _might_ come in real handy in certain
circumstances. For example, if I understand correctly cppcheck uses the
CMake configuration to figure out which source files to analyze, and with
which #define's.

So there might be some previously-underappreciated benefit to having a
CMake configuration that works on Linux, even if it is not the recommended
way to build Git on Linux.

Thank you for your incredible work on the CMake front,
Dscho
