I think most people here split the trust into "before or after
compilation". I must trust that I can clone/checkout code safely so I
can review it.

Running the code contained in the repo we are discussing a completely
different matter.  Even before compilation, Makefiles and configure
scripts may shoot you in the foot or in the face. But you had at least
a chance to review it.
