It seems this discussion has gone stale, but this is still broken on
some systems. This is gcc135 on the GCC Farm, which passes the prereq
this commit adds:

    $ systemd-analyze verify systemd/user/git-maintenance@.service
    Failed to open /dev/tty0: Permission denied
    Failed to load systemd/user/git-maintenance@.service: Invalid argument

I don't know the systemd specifics involved, but this seems like a
rather straightforward problem of assuming permissions that aren't
universal. I.e. let's try to do that in the prereq instead?

OS details, if they matter:
    
    [avar@gcc135 t]$ systemd-analyze --version
    systemd 219
    +PAM +AUDIT +SELINUX +IMA -APPARMOR +SMACK +SYSVINIT +UTMP +LIBCRYPTSETUP +GCRYPT +GNUTLS +ACL +XZ +LZ4 -SECCOMP +BLKID +ELFUTILS +KMOD +IDN
    [avar@gcc135 t]$ cat /etc/centos-release
    CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (AltArch)
