    Makefile: make USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease mean v2, not v1 · e6c531b8

    Change the USE_LIBPCRE flag from being an alias for USE_LIBPCRE1 to
    being an alias for USE_LIBPCRE2.
    
    When support for v2 was added in my 94da9193
    
     ("grep: add support for
    PCRE v2", 2017-06-01) the existing USE_LIBPCRE flag was left as
    meaning v1, with a note that this would likely change in a future
    release. That optional support for v2 first made it into Git version
    2.14.0.
    
    The PCRE v2 support has been shown to be stable, and the upstream PCRE
    project is highly encouraging downstream users to move to v2, so it
    makes sense to give packagers of Git who haven't heard the news about
    PCRE v2 a further nudge to move to v2.
