Add git to /etc/fai/NFSROOT and recreate the nfsroot. git is not
included in the nfsroot, because it uses much disk space.

That depends on what you are doing in the config space. The
disk_config will remain very stable, but package names may change (not
that many) but you may add new packages to your config.
More changes may occur if you change some default Debian configs using
the scripts or using fcopy and templates in files/
