Bug#872859: kate: fails to build against libgit2 0.26.0

[Russell Sim <russell.sim@gmail.com>]

Package: kate
Version: 4:16.08.2-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Currently Kate fails to build against libgit2 0.26.0 which has just been
uploaded to experimental. Please consider updating Kates dependencies to see if
it will sucessfuly build against this newer version.

>From what I can see, support for libgit2 has been removed from Kates master
branch because it was deemed to be too unstable, so you may be able to backport
that patch if it's too troublesome getting it to build against 0.26.0.

Thanks,
Russell
