No wrong answers.

I guess I'd go for a separate file, but I don't mind.

Sorry for not spotting this earlier, but I think the conventional name 
here is "libgit2_1.9" (i.e. the underscore just separates the upstream 
name (when it happens to end in digits) from a trailing soversion 
number, it doesn't replace all the dots in it.

If we're going to package the 'git2' tool, maybe it should have a 
description which makes it clearer what it's use is (debugging libgit2, 
not working with git repor?)

Thanks.
