Comment (by zturner):

 The issue on Twisted's side has been opened for 3 years it looks like with
 no resolution.  As a workaround on the buildbot side, one possibility is
 to hardcode the path to git.  You could precompute the full path at
 startup time by using subprocess.Popen() with "where git" or "which git",
 then using popen.communicate() to get the result, taking the first value,
 and then instead of using "git" as the command, using that result as the
 argument to getProcessOutput*
