I don't think that is ever going to be an issue. At the worst you could
just fork() and run the libgit command in that. Threads are fairly
easy in Qt as well.
In short, I wouldn't worry about libgit blocking - in fact it's almost a
guarantee that libgit /will/ block; it would be a nightmare to write an
asynchronous libgit.
