Build failure on GitHub actions

[orhun]

Hey!

I have a project which uses git2 (0.13) and recently I had this issue in my CI workflow while building it: (via cargo check)

...
     Checking git2 v0.13.19
     Running `rustc --crate-name git2 --edition=2018 /home/runner/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/git2-0.13.19/src/lib.rs --error-format=json --json=diagnostic-rendered-ansi --crate-type lib --emit=dep-info,metadata -C panic=abort -C embed-bitcode=no -C debuginfo=2 --cfg 'feature="default"' --cfg 'feature="https"' --cfg 'feature="openssl-probe"' --cfg 'feature="openssl-sys"' --cfg 'feature="ssh"' --cfg 'feature="ssh_key_from_memory"' -C metadata=738ae98b72a2f1ea -C extra-filename=-738ae98b72a2f1ea --out-dir /home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/deps -L dependency=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/deps --extern bitflags=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/deps/libbitflags-d09adf185da94a52.rmeta --extern libc=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/deps/liblibc-cb6c2a2fc9574711.rmeta --extern libgit2_sys=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/deps/liblibgit2_sys-73ee392da051bb68.rmeta --extern log=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/deps/liblog-ea081dad86be6aee.rmeta --extern openssl_probe=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/deps/libopenssl_probe-837d81d477903de1.rmeta --extern openssl_sys=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/deps/libopenssl_sys-49705c72ddb316e7.rmeta --extern url=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/deps/liburl-8a80395b37ea4bca.rmeta --cap-lints allow -L native=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/build/libgit2-sys-a3348784c0da8455/out/build -L native=/home/runner/work/gitolith/gitolith/target/debug/build/libssh2-sys-bce6b02c73950953/out/build`

(raw logs)

My workflow is the following:

name: Continuous Integration

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - master
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - master

jobs:
  check:
    name: Check
    runs-on: ubuntu-18.04
    steps:
      - name: Install toolchain
        uses: actions-rs/toolchain@v1
        with:
          toolchain: nightly
          profile: minimal
          override: true
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@master
      - name: Check
        uses: actions-rs/cargo@v1
        with:
          command: check
          args: --locked --verbose

What might be the issue here? Is it directly related to git2 or maybe this is caused by another dependency (conflict)? Or maybe because of the nightly toolchain?

[extrawurst]

yup git2-rs currently fails on nightly, see #712

edit: no problems on stable

Fixed in #712
