There may be a commit that could be cherry picked, but ideally we should
just update all Jami components to its latest nightly, if it supports
the latest libgit2 1.8.x.
I have an upgrade of Jami on a local branch, but it's not finished, and
I haven't checked yet if it would resolve that particular problem.
