   An update that has one recommended fix and contains one
   feature can now be installed.

Description:

   This update for git fixes the following issues:

   - update to 2.34.1 (bsc#1193722):
     * "git grep" looking in a blob that has non-UTF8 payload was completely
       broken when linked with certain versions of PCREv2 library in the
       latest release.
     * "git pull" with any strategy when the other side is behind us should
       succeed as it is a no-op, but doesn't.
     * An earlier change in 2.34.0 caused JGit application (that abused
       GIT_EDITOR mechanism when invoking "git config") to get stuck with a
       SIGTTOU signal; it has been reverted.
     * An earlier change that broke .gitignore matching has been reverted.
     * SubmittingPatches document gained a syntactically incorrect mark-up,
       which has been corrected.

   - git 2.33.0:
     * "git send-email" learned the "--sendmail-cmd" command line option and
       the "sendemail.sendmailCmd" configuration variable, which is a more
       sensible approach than the current way of repurposing the
       "smtp-server" that is meant to name the server to instead name the
       command to talk to the server.
     * The userdiff pattern for C# learned the token "record".
     * "git rev-list" learns to omit the "commit <object-name>" header lines
       from the output with the `--no-commit-header` option.
     * "git worktree add --lock" learned to record why the worktree is locked
       with a custom message.
     * internal improvements including performance optimizations
     * a number of bug fixes

   - git 2.32.0:
     * ".gitattributes", ".gitignore", and ".mailmap" files that are symbolic
       links are ignored
     * "git apply --3way" used to first attempt a straight application, and
       only fell back to the 3-way merge algorithm when the straight
       application failed.  Starting with this version, the command will
       first try the 3-way merge algorithm and only when it fails (either
       resulting with conflict or the base versions of blobs are missing),
       falls back to the usual patch application.
     * "git stash show" can now show the untracked part of the stash
     * Improved "git repack" strategy
     * http code can now unlock a certificate with a cached password
       respectively.
     * "git clone --reject-shallow" option fails the clone as soon as we
       notice that we are cloning from a shallow repository.
     * "gitweb" learned "e-mail privacy" feature
     * Multiple improvements to output and configuration options
     * Bug fixes and developer visible fixes
