Description

Many developer ran into problem during libgit2 installation.

1. The existing `libgit2` installed by package manager is most likely not of version 1.3.0, one could use `pkg-config --modversion libgit2` to make sure of that
2. When existing version doesn't fit our requirement, provide a guide to uninstall existing version, and adopt the Manual Compilation approach.
3. Prompt developer to setup `PKG_CONFIG_PATH` and `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` environment variable for Manual Compilation approach.
4. Provide some common error message screen shot for developer to check if they are having the same kind of problem
