Nowadays, I would not consider doing nontrivial development on Emacs
without having a Git repository available. (This does not require an
Internet connection, just a copy of the repository; I commonly work this
way.) These days, serious hacking without the repository would be like
hacking without the ChangeLog files would have been in the old days.
It'd be like hacking with one arm tied behind one's back, and it's not
something that we need to cater to.
