Yes, see the SConstruct in the link (branch Python.Value is a full working example).

env.GitClone("gittest", "https://github.com/flashpixx/Storage.git")
env.GitPull("#target-not-needed", "gittest")

The clone command clones the sources, but the pull builder seems not to be run, only if
the target_factory = Scons.Python.Value.

You can copy also this short example to a SConstruct, it reproduce the problem:
------------
import SCons.Action

env = Environment()

env["BUILDERS"]["WithPyValue"] = SCons.Builder.Builder( action = SCons.Action.Action("echo testbuild 1"), target_factory = SCons.Node.Python.Value )
env["BUILDERS"]["WithoutPyValue"] = SCons.Builder.Builder( action = SCons.Action.Action("echo testbuild 2"), source_factory = SCons.Node.Python.Value )

env.WithPyValue("target1", "source1")
env.WithoutPyValue("target2", "source2")
---------------

On my OSX I get:

scons: Building targets ...
echo testbuild 2
testbuild 2
scons: done building targets.

the first builder is not run.

Yes, i have read this

Yes, in my projects I create always an alias for building all depended libraries from their sources, because
manual download / clone / checkout, extracting, compiling are interminable, so I use Scons for this
building process. This process must be run once, but I need different sources (HTTP download, Git clone, SVN checkout).
I do this, because I don't want to explain all difference of the library install procedure for new project members (eg students
which are working first time with the project).
Okay, I would have implementated only the clone / checkout function or use env.Command, but for practice use I would like to implementate
also the pull / commit calls.

This builder should not be used for the main code base, but rather on install the project library base.
