$ apt-cache policy git
git:
Installed: 1:1.7.10.4-1+wheezy1
Candidate: 1:1.7.10.4-1+wheezy1
Version table:
*** 1:1.7.10.4-1+wheezy1 0
500 http://cdn.debian.net/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Notice the amd64 arch. So what the question really is about?
If you have found a place where Git explicitly uses a 32-bit integer
where it would better be using a 64-bit one, please propose a patch to
discuss.
