Adding to that: Not everybody reads the whole list. The first mail you sent, was deep down in the thread for rewriting rebase --interactive in C instead of shell. The libgit2 maintainer (Carlos) is highly unlikely to read that as it doesn't affect libgit2.
Posting as a separate thread here increases the chance for him to spot this message.
Usually you'd cc the people you're addressing as that has highest chance that the relevant people see your message. (I cc'd Carlos in this message, no need to resend a third time from you.)
