[petsc-users] Could not execute "['git', 'rev-parse', '--git-dir']"

[Garvey, Cormac T]

We needed to rebuilt git on the INL falcon cluster because github server
changed such that it no longer accepted TLSv1.

The default git on the falcon cluster /usr/bin/git is just a wrapper
script, so users would not need to load any modules to
use git.

When you load load git on falcon1 or falcon2 does it still fail?

module load git/2.16.2-GCCcore-5.4.0

Thanks,
Cormac.
