I still stand by these words, and I think you completely glanced over this problem. Your focus seems to lie exclusively on those "dependency problems". But apart from you, who cares if `libgit.a` is not rebuilt in obscure and rare circumstances _when building something in `contrib/`_? The code in `contrib/scalar/` is transitional. Just forget about Scalar's build process. Forget about getting its CI to work. I have all that figured out already.

I would still like to invite you to think along more productive lines. It's not about where Scalar's build mechanics are right now. It's where we can take _Git_ to do what Scalar already does.
