libgit2 @0.28.5: update to 1.0.1

Port: libgit2

Description

Version 1.0.0 of libgit2 was released on 2020-04-01, and the latest version is 1.0.1: https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/releases/latest

But only the 0.28.x branch is available via Macports.

Could you please comment if we can hope for 1.0.x ports to be made available or if there are known problems with it? I wasn't able to find any prior discussion on this. Thank you!

There are many Rust-based tools that rely on libgit2, and the simplest way to get them building without --joining the dark side-- homebrew is to have the required version of libgit2 installed via macports. (Having macports, but not using it to install libgit2 results in linking errors, which are not easily fixable on the rust side.) As these tools upgrade their dependencies, this becomes more of a nuisance.
