Description Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2021-05-30 09:44:14 UTC 
Git depends on jgit, which will be orphaned soon due to his dependency on some orphaned Java packages. Would it be possible to cut jgit as a BR as a stopgap mesure?

Thanks.
Comment 1 Todd Zullinger 2021-05-30 14:21:25 UTC 
Yeah, I've watched the progress of this and will remove the jgit BR before the orphaning affects git, just as I did previously in 8faf622 (drop jgit BR on Fedora > 30, 2019-07-29) and then restored in 39a7618 (restore jgit BR for use in tests, 2019-12-03).

This is easy enough that I don't think we need to preemptively do this until the java packages are about to be retired.  I haven't seen an announcement that this is happening quite yet, but I believe 6 weeks is up sometime in the first week of June?

Not to worry, I have no intention of letting git be removed just so we can have a few compatibility tests with jgit. :)

Thank you for maintaining the java stack as long as you did!
