Dear Maintainer,
When the "Install/update selected" button is pressed in the Addon Manager,
FreeCAD locks up for me. Specifically, I selected the Assembly4 workbench,
which was not previously installed.
If FreeCAD is launched from a terminal, an error message is visible there:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/freecad/Mod/AddonManager/addonmanager_workers.py", line 769,
in run
repo = git.Repo.clone_from(self.repos[idx][1], clonedir)
AttributeError: module 'git' has no attribute 'Repo'
```
However, no message is displayed in the UI, it just becomes unresponsive.
This appears to have been reported upstream before on a different distribution
and they blamed the distro package:
https://tracker.freecadweb.org/view.php?id=4072
The official 0.19 AppImage download directly from FreeCAD does not exhibit this
issue.
There is probably a secondary bug here that could be reported upstream about
the UI locking up when this error occurs, but it was mentioned in the linked
report already.

Possibly the underlaying issue has been fixed: Here it works fine, I was able to
install e.g. the assembly4 workbench without problems.
I'm closing the bug, feel free to reopen it if you still have the issue.
