                 Changes in version 1.8.0 (2022-09-06)                  

  - The static libgit2 for win/mac/linux are all 1.4.2 with a patched
    version of libssh 1.10.1. This should fix problems with the latest

    re-enables authentication with GitHub using an RSA key.
  - On production Linux systems (x64 RHEL/Ubuntu) default to building
    using the static libgit2 because of above reasons. Set
    USE_SYSTEM_LIBGIT2=1 to force building against a local libgit2 on
    these platforms.

                 Changes in version 1.7.1 (2022-08-18)

  - We recommend at least libgit2 1.0 now
  - Windows: update to libgit2 1.4.2
  - Tests: switch to ECDSA keys for ssh remote unit tests

                 Changes in version 1.5.0 (2022-01-03)                  

  - Windows: use ${HOMEDRIVE}${HOMEPATH} path as home if it exists, to
    match git-for-windows. On most systems this is the same as
    ${USERPROFILE}.
  - git_commit_info() no longer includes $diff by default because it can
    be huge. Please use git_diff() instead if you need it.

  - On x86_64 Linux systems where libgit2 is too old or unavailable, we
    automatically try to download a precompiled static version of
    libgit2. This includes CentOS 7/8 as well as Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04.
    Therefore the PPA should no longer be needed. You can opt-out of
    this by setting an envvar: USE_SYSTEM_LIBGIT2=1
  - Add tooling to manually find and set the location of the system SSL
    certificates on such static builds, and also for Solaris.
  - Add several functions to work with submodules.
  - Globally enable submodule-caching for faster diffing.
  - Refactor internal code to please rchk analysis tool.
