git is a required dependency

[LukeShortCloud]

On Debian 11, after installing the dependencies [1] and running fpm -s rpm -t deb <RPM_NAME>.rpm an occur is presented about git not being found. After installing the package, the error no longer appears and the command works correctly.

Hi! Git is an accidental dependency and this is a bug. I’ve got a patch that should fix it and would benefit from testing, if you can? #1753

Thanks for the quick response! I downloaded your branch with the fixes, removed git from my system, installed the gem, and verified it works now!
