Update the git2 crate to version 0.18.2
Summary
Bindings to libgit2 for interoperating with git repositories. This
library is both threadsafe and memory safe and allows both reading and
writing git repositories.
Update Information:
Update the git2 crate to version 0.18.2. Update the libgit2-sys crate to version 0.16.2. Version 0.16.2 of the libgit2-sys crate includes an update of the bundled copy of libgit2 to version 1.7.2 to address CVE-2024-24575 and CVE-2024-24577. Since the libgit2 bindings cause applications that use them to statically link libgit2, this update also includes rebuilds of all affected applications.
