To answer your remaining questions:

> What is the webapp trying to do with Git? Do I need to point it at some
git repo?

The Workbench tries to clone a demo repository from github.com on startup.
This can be disabled. See
here<http://docs.jboss.org/drools/release/6.0.1.Final/drools-docs/html/wb.Workbench.html#wb.systemProperties>.
You'll need to set "org.kie.demo" to false.

If you don't have an internet connection to github.com you can use the demo
repositories bundled with the distribution
(kie-wb-example-repositories-6.0.1.Final.zip in the download). You will
need to set "org.kie.example.repositories"

These relate to 5.5 not 6.0. Guvnor used to be the whole web app; now it is
just a small component. See
here<http://blog.athico.com/2013/06/goodbye-guvnor-hello-drools-workbench.html>
