From d2021eb33549319da75a1b80642768bb397cecd2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick Steinhardt Date: Wed, 21 Dec 2022 12:49:48 +0100 Subject: git: Bump minimum required Git version to v2.38.0 Git v2.38.0 brings some important changes with it that we want to build on: - It fixes a source of corruption when upgrading commit-graphs that contain generation data in v1 to v2. We currently had to disable use of generation data completely because of that bug so that we don't corrupt repositories. This information is important though to speed up some computations, like for example in the packfile negotiation. - git-merge-tree(1) learned two merge two trees. This is important to allow us to do in-memory merges. - git-cat-file(1) starts to support mailmaps, which is important for us to support them in Gitaly. - git-clone(1) has clearned about bundle URIs, which allows offloading parts of a clone to a CDN. Bump the minimum required Git version to v2.38.0.
