Proposed Changes

With the package installations, git should be listed to ensure the upgrade script completes with no issues.
This is due to not all deploys include a "standard" packaging list like the proxmox ubuntu lxc containers

Users are instructed to install git here, only if using it for the installation.

I didnt do the git clone option, I went with the release installation. Redirecting this to option B is misplaced if option A results on requiring this package due your upgrade script process required to pull a git repo for a module or update.

Would it not be proactive to include the git package in the installation packages prior to the option A\B choice?
