Comment (by jsha):

 Got it! Yes, we can definitely change this, the question is to what. From
 your comment, it sounds like maybe `fetch-inputs.sh` runs on a non-Lucid
 host that has a git with the `-f` flag?

 I think we can probably omit the `-f` flag. I'm trying to remember why I
 needed it. In theory everything that happens inside that portion of
 `makexpi.sh` (the part that builds a specific version from a tag) happens
 in a clean checkout, and `-f` shouldn't be necessary. I'll experiment with
 it a bit. Am very open to suggestions or patches!
