git @2.14.0: pcre2 variant — at Version 2

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

  • Git can now be built with PCRE v2 instead of v1 of the PCRE library. Replace USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease with USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease in existing build scripts to build against the new version. As the upstream PCRE maintainer has abandoned v1 maintenance for all but the most critical bug fixes, use of v2 is recommended.

Instead of creating another variant, can't the existing pcre variant be updated for this?
