Thanks to the group for the advice.  In the meantime I haven't got over
cold feet, and haven't upgraded.  How about xubuntu?

I have gone "Slackware-time" and built an up-to-date version of git that
works with present-day github.  All is going well.  Kudos to git
developers for making their default build a local build so I can roll my
own local version for testing without necessarily messing with the
installed system.
