libkf5texteditor is an LGPL-2.1+ project that has optional GPL-2+ data files,
so the code that links against libgit is LGPL-2.1+ in effect and I don't think
that there an issue there. I'll add an extra comment about this in the
copyright file and close this issue in the next upload.

Something like:
 KDE software follows the KDE licensing policy that can be found:
 https://techbase.kde.org/Policies/Licensing_Policy
 Some files might refer to license names that are explained it these the
 mentioned policy.
 .
 Unless otherwise noted the default license used in this framework is
 LGPL-2.1+ for the source code. Some of the optional xml and js files used
 at runtime are under a version of the GPL license.
 .
 In particular, this licensing allows this project to link against libgit2
 (which may, in turn, link against the openssl, which has incompatibilities
 with the GPL), as the linkable code per se is under a version of the LGPL.

Happy hacking,
