Continual problems installing and updating with Gitlab

I have a free account at gitlab "EdNett" - is there a way to add this username and a password to the drutopia archive? I do use different VPS's for different drutopia sites.

Trying to update only drutopia gives this:

In Git.php line 520:

Command "git" is not defined.

The error message at the end actually looks like it is:

A) referring to Drupal.org's git repositories

and

B) saying the command git is not defined.

Both those problems should be fixable if we switch to https for all dependencies, which is not a hassle to do and develop at the same time thanks to now knowing about https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/03/20/git-rewrite-url-https-ssh/

Actually i think we've done all that and you are going to need to install git.

Alternatively / for debugging, how do these DDEV instructions work for you after installing DDEV?

ddev config --docroot=web --project-type=drupal10 --webserver-type=apache-fpm --database=mariadb:10.8 --php-version=8.2 --create-docroot
ddev auth ssh
ddev composer create drutopia/drutopia_template:2.x-dev --no-interaction

And here is the old GitLab issue for whatever it's worth.

https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/32300

Does not appear resolved.

Maybe we can just move this last piece of Drutopia off of GitLab and onto Codeberg and not have these problems?
