Build fails when using SimpleModule template and choosing to not use Git

[johlju]

Problem description

Creating a module using template SimpleModule and saying no to the question to use git will make the build fail.

Verbose logs

Unhandled exception. System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Cannot find the .git directory
   at GitVersion.Git.GitRepositoryInfo.GetProjectRootDirectory() in /private/tmp/gitversion-20240722-7185-xp03bq/GitVersion-6.0.0/src/GitVersion.LibGit2Sharp/Git/GitRepositoryInfo.cs:line 88

How to reproduce

Create a module:

mkdir TestModule
cd TestModule
New-SampleModule -DestinationPath '..\' -ModuleType 'SimpleModule' -ModuleAuthor 'DSC Community contributors' -ModuleName (Split-Path -Leaf $PWD) -ModuleDescription 'no description' -LicenseType MIT -SourceDirectory 'source' -ModuleVersion '0.0.1'

Build the module:

./build.ps1 -ResolveDependency -Tasks noop
./build.ps1

Expected behavior

Module generated from template should pass build (and test).

Current behavior

Build fails with message indicating Git is required.

Suggested solution

Must be a requirement for git that is not removed when the Plaster template question for Git is set to 'No'.
