/Open Source/
I can not be the only schizod here.
When do you install something from git, are you afraid that it may have some backdoor or other shit implemented?
I know its opensource but I doubt that anyone read kk+ line of source code.
When you are using something like solarized or vim plugin or some other scripts from git opensource repos.
Are you afraid that there may be something malicious?

Git is not github
To answer your question, I read the source code of small projects I'm interested in and I "blindly" follows the install guideline for large projects so people w would have notice if something was off.
If you're paranoid, just Google "reflections on trusting trust" and admit you're powerless against big brother.
I get these concerns too. There's usually a big project that can handle what I'm trying to do, and i use that project most of the time. Other times, i'll either make or look for a bash script (e.g, my pomf.cat uploader)

It's about backdoors.

Morale : you either live away form things you didn't /built from scratch/ or accept the possibly of being cucked against all odds.
