Xcode 10.2 Beta 1 contains Apple Git-116. A couple months ago, Peff encouraged me to re-send our changes in a patch series to the mailing list, so here they are! As reference, these (and past patch series for Apple Git) are availale at: https://github.com/jeremyhu/git Some of these patches are upstreamable as is, but othes represent areas where customization options could be provided upstream to allow similar behavior. Note that I am very grateful for the recent changes in mainline to support RUNTIME_PREFIX on darwin. It almost completely replaced our RUNTIME_PREFIX implementation and made the few remaining changes much more maintainale. Please integrate the changes that are upstreamable and let's use the others as a starting point for discussing how to accomplish the same effect through configuration options or other means. Thanks, Jeremy
