First do this from the command line:

export GIT_TREE_ROOT="/home/keith/builds/slackware/trinity"
export GIT_TREE="zz_src_trinity_git"
mkdir -p $GIT_TREE_ROOT/$GIT_TREE
cd $GIT_TREE_ROOT
git clone --recursive http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde $GIT_TREE

Then modify your script like this:

GIT_TREE_ROOT="/home/keith/builds/slackware/trinity"
GIT_TREE="zz_src_trinity_git"
if [ -d $GIT_TREE_ROOT/$GIT_TREE ]; then
  cd $GIT_TREE_ROOT/$GIT_TREE
  sh ./scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean anonymous
else
  mkdir -p $GIT_TREE_ROOT/$GIT_TREE
  cd $GIT_TREE_ROOT
  git clone --recursive http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde $GIT_TREE
fi
