That Ubuntu release has been EOL'd. Further, I've looked at that version of git, and not only is
the --porcelain option not supported, neither is the --short option -- which means there's
really no good way to parse the output of the status command.
Given the age of this bug report and the EOLing of the distro release, I'm going to reject this
ticket. If this is still an active problem for you, please re-open the ticket and we can talk
about options.
Thanks.
