Much as I like Git, I'm not sure I like the idea of the artefacts depending on the git commit and therefore on the entire git history. I rather feel the artefacts should only depend on the actual source and not on a particular version control system used for storing the source.

You're welcome to include full sources, or not-tied-to-git directions to acquire them, with your release binaries.

Regardless, whether or not you do that is a discussion of distribution format, not binary reproducibility. Your distribution can contain as much (or as little) additional material as you like along with your release binaries.
