Description
When running the first configure (and during the subsequent build) checkouts from git repositories fail with `unsafe respository ( ) is owned by someone else`
This did not occur on my first build (on the main HD) but happened when moving to a separate disk the remediation is to declare certain repositories as safe see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71901632/fatal-error-unsafe-repository-home-repon-is-owned-by-someone-else
This might affect superbuilds in general as people upgrade git

Research direction
The failure occurs during the first CMake configure and subsequent build, when Git checkouts in superbuilds are rejected as unsafe after moving repositories to a separate disk. Start by reproducing the configure and build in that environment, then inspect how repository checkouts are handled. Done means the configure and build complete without Git security warnings.
