Hi

I'm maintainer of the Frescobaldi flatpak package.
I've never used that snippet, although I use git to manage my sheets.

If someone took over the work started a few years ago to integrate Git 
in Frescobaldi, then bundling git inside Frescobaldi flatpak would be a 
must.
As of today I might consider adding git, if it's easy to build and 
doesn't take too much space (it shouldn't).. and if other flatpak users 
find it useful.
