git published an advisory Yesterday, which (as a counter-measure)
requires the git repository's directory to be owned by the current
user, and otherwise produce an error:
fatal: unsafe repository ('/workspace' is owned by someone else)
To add an exception for this directory, call:
git config --global --add safe.directory /workspace
The DCO check is run within a container, which is running as `root`
(to allow packages to be installed), but because of this, the user
does not match the files that are bind-mounted from the host (as they
are checked out by Jenkins, using a different user).
To work around this issue, this patch configures git to consider the
`/workspace` directory as "safe". We configure it in the `--system`
configuration so that it takes effect for "all users" inside the
container.
More details on the advisory can be found on GitHub's blog:

Wondering we could propose the git to allow root-owned directories exceptionally. |

Perhaps not a bad idea. (that said, in this specific case, we shouldn't require |
