Subject: Re: [bug#38546] [PATCH v5] Julia: Update to 1.3.1

Hi Efraim, thanks for the report.

Yes, according to this report[1] we should downgrade libgit2 0.99.  I'll
try to send an updated patch in the next days.

In the meanwhile, reding arch bug-tracker [2] I saw that libgit2 depends
on http-parser (USE_HTTP_PARSER).  Should we unbundle it from git?

Thanks, Nicolò
