Oxidize GitButler about gitoxide

[Qix-]

add ODB alternates

While this is something Gitoxide should of course support, we're actually moving away from needing this long-term.

on Windows, there is no native ssh transport yet which might be worse than git2 right now.

Check out https://docs.rs/russh - they've been great maintainers and I used to use this crate for testing SSH stuff locally. Might work as a native transport. It's a maintained, spruced up version of Pijul's thrussh.

Thanks for kicking this off and for pointing to the original discussion! It helped me to understand what's going on as I was a little confused - now I see that a migration is happening to the -git crate and all makes sense.

I was pretty quick in creating this issue and I welcome you to double-check, or ask for clarification where you see fit or need. This can only make it better.

Thank you @Byron for this! It was such a treat meeting you, and I am so excited about oxidising GitButler :)
I fully agree about the general principles that you outlined, it's very much how we like to approach problems too.

Hey Sebastian,

Thanks for this! I was planning on doing this discovery later this week, because I'm off due to Carnival. I actually opened a discussion in the repo.

Thanks for the suggestions! I have just linked the gitoxide native #1246 issue, and believe that also lists russh as very strong candidate.
