Hey Alex,

Thanks again for the feedback.

When we first started creating packages, we wanted our packages to have
unique names and assumed that name + version would work.   This worked
well till Red Hat updated its PHP on EL 5 and released php53.  We asked
the community what to do, and it was recommend that we add just the 'u'
from ius[0].  We renamed our php53 package to php53u as a one off as it
seemed it was a one off from Red Hat.  Once Red Hat released its SCL
packages, we decided all new packages would include the 'u' to prevent
any future naming conflicts.

-Ben

Title:
  WL: git 2

Status in IUS Community Project:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  DESCRIPTION: Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control
  system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-
  level operations and full access to internals.

  REASON:
  Centos 6 still only provides 1.7.x version of git.
  Centos 7 provides 1.8.3 version.

  At the moment latest git release is 2.1.3.
  Would be nice to have an RPM, and take advantage of new features.
