It's a long time since I wrote that document.

Does this mean you're not willing to relicense your contributions with
the license used by libgit2? That's what the document is supposed to
mean and it's what I asked on the mailing list when requesting
permission.

The libgit2 license used as of today is still the license that people
agreed to relicense their contributions under. It can be found here:
https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/blob/development/.HEADER

I'm mostly adding it here for the sake of clarity in case people find
this in the future and wonder what all the fuzz was about.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
