The bottom line for all this if that you never really needed to build the Eclipse plugin or DDMS yourself. You could just have used the one from the Android 1.0 SDK r1 or r2 (in the tools directory). As it is right now, the SDK tools work the same as the ones from git.
As Xav stated, the only reason one would want to rebuild the plugin or the standalone DDMS is to make changes to them.
