Package: salt-master
Version: 2018.3.3+dfsg1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When using pygit2 as the gitfs_provider critical errors are thrown in the error log if the git package is not installed:
  2019-02-07 07:44:20,180 [salt.utils.gitfs :2565][ERROR   ][2577] The git command line utility is required when using the 'pygit2' gitfs_provider.
  2019-02-07 07:44:20,181 [salt.utils.gitfs :2468][CRITICAL][2577] No suitable gitfs provider module is installed.
  2019-02-07 07:44:20,185 [salt.loader      :1702][ERROR   ][2577] Failed to load function git.envs because its module (git) is not in the whitelist: ['gitfs', 'roots']

Installing the Debian git package and restarting salt-master resolves this issue.  I have briefly tested the pygit2 python module (https clone, commit log listing) and it does not appear the python module on it's own requires the git binary.
