Otherwise this makes it difficult to package contrib scripts in certain distributions.

For example, if you have a proper Makefile in contrib:

--- TESTS := $(wildcard test*.sh) SCRIPTS := $(wildcard git-remote-*.py)

export T := $(addprefix $(CURDIR)/,$(TESTS)) export MAKE := $(MAKE) -e export PATH := $(CURDIR):$(PATH) export TEST_LINT := test-lint-executable test-lint-shell-syntax

export SCRIPT_PYTHON := $(addprefix $(CURDIR)/,$(SCRIPTS))
all: $(SCRIPTS)
	$(MAKE) -C ../.. build-python-script
install:
	$(MAKE) -C ../.. install-python-script
test: all
	$(MAKE) -C ../../t $@
$(TESTS): all
	$(MAKE) -C ../../t $(CURDIR)/$@

.PHONY: all install test $(TESTS) ---

A packager might create a git-bzr package that does this:
% make -C contrib/remote-helpers install
But that would fail, unless this patch is applied.

Distributions like Arch Linux don't have a concept of multiple binary packages from a single source package, so there would need to be a separate PKGBUILD (akin to spec file) for git-bzr. In addition this package might not be official, but part of the user maintained AUR. Similarly, other distributions might want to package git-bzr separetly, for example from launchpad.
