[scl.org] New git package

[Souvignier, Daniel]

Hi Honza,

thanks for the info. I just found out that it is not necessary to update the
client version of git to work with GitLab, it's just the package that's
running on the GitLab server itself that is important. As that one is
included in the gitlab omnibus package already, nothing has to be done here.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Yes, they do, if there is good enough reason (security or very important
fix). We definitely don't include all fixes.

Anyway, if there are reasons to have a newer git SCL, I'm totally not
against, we can have sclo-git212.. the changes in Fedora SPEC are not that
big..
