Description Alexandre Rostovtsev 2014-06-22 21:19:54 UTC 
In libgit2-glib-0.0.14, ggit_get_capabilities() was renamed to ggit_get_features() and GGIT_CAP_* enum values became GGIT_FEATURE_*; see commit 91db08d3bd25dabe967865894ee8645e6e661d11.

This breaks gitg's configure check for threadsafe libgit2, which currently checks for ggit_get_capabilities() & GGIT_CAP_THREADS != 0:

checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for LIBGITG... yes
checking for libgit2-glib threading support... configure: error: no, please recompile a threadsafe version of libgit2 (-DTHREADSAFE:BOOL=ON)

Perhaps there should be a new gitg release which is compatible with libgit2-glib-0.0.14 / 0.0.16?

merged but now gitg is depending on libgit2-glib master. I should probably make again another release of libgit2-glib but I'll probably wait a bit more.
