Not sure why, but version 4.2.2 installs git from package on our CentOS servers (as desired), but upgrading to latest version causes git to be compiled from source.
A lot of cookbooks rely on this one (by calling include_recipe 'git'), and I can't seem to find a way to instruct installation from package, since both providers... provide with the same configuration

#71.

coderanger added a commit to coderanger/chef that referenced this issue Jul 19, 2015
These are high-volume, difficult to silence, and often not actually an
error (in which case they may be impossible to silence forever). Worse,
doing what the error says and setting override:true without understanding
what that does can have unexpected effects (sous-chefs/git#71).

Thanks for the quick response!
Just out of curiosity, how does one trigger source builds now?

You might want to make it a node attribute, like node['git']['source'], but don't wanna impose.
Thanks again!
