lov6 git

[Predrag Punosevac]

That version of git is pulled as a dependency for some package. That
is a stock Red Hat git version. If you look in /opt/rh you will see
another version older than 2.18 which is in itself pretty old also
compared to what people use these days. I am CC-ing again
users at autonlab.org as I think many people might be confused with this.
I hope you are not going to refer to me as a git for doing it :-)
