Hi All,

As I wrote earlier, yesterday I offered a workshop on introducing Julia at 
my university. After the workshop, one of the attendees asked me this 
question:

" It turns out that Julia version 0.4.1 has git packaged with it:

*shell> **which git*
/Applications/Julia-0.4.1.app/Contents/Resources/julia/libexec/git-core/git

*shell> **git --version*
git version 1.8.5.6

And from the terminal command line:

jm500:~ 
$/Applications/Julia-0.4.1.app/Contents/Resources/julia/libexec/git-core/git 
--version
git version 1.8.5.6

Either a mistake, which I’d think unlikely, or there is a deliberate use of 
an old version of git?"

What may be the reason of including an older version of git in Julia? Would 
greatly appreciate if you can provide some words to the wise.

Best,
Arin
