Issue body
### Bug Description
`subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['git', 'describe', '--always', '--long']' returned non-zero exit status 128.`
looks like the installer is written to build from git, whereas the package is also published to pypi?
### To Reproduce
`python3 -m pip install snapcraft`
### Environment
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.9
Python 3.10.11
Pip 2.3.1
Snapcraft 4.8.1
### Relevant log output
```shell
Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable
Collecting snapcraft
Using cached snapcraft-4.8.1.tar.gz (839 kB)
