could you please give an update on the status of libgit.a. For example
cgit still could not be packaged yet for Debian [1] because of this bug
[2].

cgit is used by a lot of projects out there, so I am wondering if the
current libgit.a can be released in its current state.

By the way, is there a web site/page for libgit.a?


Thanks and sorry if I got something wrong,

Paul
