I note that you updated the version of libgit2 without checking with me or checking the compatibility of
dependents other than those you are interested in. I would have told you there was an issue that was blocking
the upgrade.

This is the second time that you've arbitrarily modified this port without consultation or regard for the consequences
to other ports.

pygit2 is only broken because you updated to a version that requires 0.24.0.  It was working fine with the previous version.

I expect the problem with libgit2-glib to be resolved shortly.  If not, of course, I will do as you say and create a
compatibility version of libgit2 but as of now that doesn't seem necessary.

I'm glad to work with you to come to a resolution of this problem that doesn't cause breakage of any ports.  However,
I've got to say that I'm a bit put off by your arrogant attitude and your unwillingness to work cooperatively with others.
