Description
# Cause
The source for asyncgit 0.27.0 on crates.io differs from the source (also 0.27.0) in this repo. This lifetime fix : a91132d187b9d353ea1d2c0cb6790e44f7256eb0 is not present [here](https://docs.rs/crate/asyncgit/latest/source/src/sync/patches.rs) on crates.io.
I think the problem is not caught by CI since it installs from a cloned repo instead of from the crates registry. I've had similar issues building gitui with `cargo install gitui` in the past. Maybe it's worth creating another job that does that method of installing instead of `cargo install --path .`
I can't live without Gitui. Thank you for a great project!
