The git-core package is not mandatory about git-flow-completion HOT 3 CLOSED

It's a wiki, feel free to update it ;)

Is it possible that this is a Debian requirement, or that it used to be a requirement, but has changed? If so, we should add a note that older versions of Ubuntu and/or Debian might need git-core.

Yes, It seems that is a transitional dummy package for git on debian squeeze/wheezy/jessie/sid and on ubuntu precise/trusty.

The git-core package only exists for Ubuntu Lucid (git package does not exists), but the Ubuntu Lucid LTS version will be deprecated for server in one month and is already deprecated for desktop since 2 years ^^

So I think we could avoid adding a special note ?

It is done on the wiki:
