Note that if xinetd indeed goes away, your package will most likely not be
affected, unless you actually need git-cvs.
Nontheless the packagers should review their packages whether they indeed have
to depend on the full-blown git which pulls in Perl and Python. Very probably
they could switch to a tinier git-core:
Or switch to depend on `%{_bindir}/git`?
If we do it like this, we will never be able drop repo download times
for Fedora users.
I personally think packages should depend on package names only even
though filelists.xml lazy loading is not yet implemented
(https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/7I6HII4Y62BYVU2DEY67VMONJKZENDJC/).
Actually, several locations end up in primary metadata.

And as a side note, it is not recommended to use %{_bindir} in buildrequires.
The package actually needs /usr/bin/git even if you redefine %{_bindir} (e.g. in
a flatpak build). However I cannot find the discussion about this.
