Nice catch, yes, though we might need the generated .h both for the
builtin and libgit sources. Will double check this.

I also wonder why meson does not fail ... Likely it's because the
builtins are built before libgit.

(the makefile did fail, because I didn't move that dep there as well
initially)

Thanks for the patch, will do something similar in the next re-roll and
credit you.

Will wait about 1 week in case there is more feedback.
