Answer to myself:

$ pkg-config --print-errors --exists libgit2
Package libssh2 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libssh2.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'libssh2', required by 'libgit2', not found

I needed to install package libssh2-1-dev.  Patch attached.
INSTALL needs to be updated too.


Cheers,
