git clone --progress not supported with older git binaries

Details

    Description

      Jenkins-9168 adds the '--progress' option to git-clone. This flag was introduced to git sometime after git v1.5.5.6. The sensible workaround for people running older versions (ie, anyone using EPEL) is to update git to a newer version. There should be a minimum required version of git listed somewhere in the release notes.

          Due to this problem, we're no longer able to build are git projects. Is there a workaround someone can suggest?

          As it can be seen in the commit linked above, the Git version is checked before adding the "--progress" argument.
          So this issue seems to be fixed.
