Heads up, all:

As per the subject, Rust is coming to Git.

As of Git 2.55.0, you need to pass NO_RUST=1 to disable Rust components in
the build process.

It seems that Rust will become mandatory by the time we reach Git v3.

https://github.com/Libre-WD-40/git is a fork of Git that aims to deliver
Git without Rust (named as such because WD-40 removes rust).

We have a PR for a port of it here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/33401

Thanks.
