Yes, this is the situation we are facing. We allow our customers to
use the git version that is supported/available on their OS (within a
certain range of supported versions) so our customers usually don't
compile from source.

That's fair enough, I was mostly enquiring about the official git
versions this will land in so that we can advise customers what git
version to use (or not to use).

I've noticed Peff's patches on pu which suggest they will be available
in git 2.5?
Do you Junio, have plans to merge them to maint (2.3.x) and/or next (2.4)?

While I certainly agree that this is specific to Git on NFS and not a
more widespread git performance problem, I'd love to be able to
message something other than "skip all the git version between and
including git 2.2 - 2.4".

I appreciate your consideration and thanks again for the swift response on this.

Cheers,
Stefan
