Git plugin 3.9.x does not mandate Java 8 of itself. The git plugin 3.9.x
compile environment checks that the generated byte code is only Java 7.
However, as you have discovered, that does not check that all its
dependencies only require Java 7.
I think you're stuck performing a search through
No, that’s not what I was implying, unfortunately.

I can get Jenkins running fine, but when I try to install the git plugin,
it installs dependencies that require Java 1.8.
