Is this unusual, or is it just like how other makefile macros like
say USE_NSEC (to cause the resulting Git to use subsecond mtimes)
are meant to be used to control the build? IOW, shouldn't this be
documented near the top of the Makefile, e.g.
diff --git i/Makefile w/Makefile
index 41ad458aef..2b55fe9672 100644

It might make sense to follow naming convention to call it NO_RUST
and flip its polarity. Those who do not have or want libgit-rs and
friends can say NO_RUST but otherwise it gets built by default. It
would give you a wider developer population coverage.
Thanks.
