If this only breaks on upgrade from an older version of Git on CentOS,
I'd file a bug with the CentOS (or Red Hat) folks.  I expect that this
is due to a patch that Red Hat applied, and not really a limitation in
Git.

As you might be aware, Git 1.8.3.1 is rather old; we've just released
2.23.0.  You could try using a version of Git from Software Collections
(2.18 is available) and see if that works better for you, but I suspect
most folks on the list don't pay much attention to versions before 2.0.

Be aware that it may be Apache that's the problem here and not Git if it
was also upgraded.
