One of the primary problems seems to be the creation of '.git' FILES instead of
'.git' DIRECTORIES on checkout:

11:37 archangel:/dat_f/tde> find main -type f -name .git
main/tdegraphics/.git
main/tdeartwork/.git
main/tdepim/.git
main/libraries/libkexiv2/.git
main/libraries/libksquirrel/.git
main/libraries/mlt/.git
main/libraries/pytdeextensions/.git
main/libraries/libkdcraw/.git
main/libraries/libkipi/.git
