TL;DR; So far (Friday ~17h Paris time) we managed to get everything up and running. A new VM is being released by our CI, all pull requests are issued and we should have everything integrated by tonight.

More on the situation: Errors happened randomly with
```
error reading from the zlib stream
```
or
```
bad packet length
```
Several people helped in getting a reliable script to reproduce the issue, plus some instructions to produce a reproduction environment using a docker container. With that in our hands, we managed to corner the issue to a new incompatibility between old libgit2 versions, ssh2, OpenSSL, and (at least) Github.
After testing some configurations, we decided to upgrade the libgit and related binaries to newer versions:
- libgit 1.4.4
- libssh 1.9.0
- OpenSSL 1.1.1k
This was of course not as straightforward as we would have liked.
Libgit2 1.4.4 was not compatible with its older versions and broke our ffi bindings.
We needed to provide new VM binaries for all our major platforms, make a new VM release, upgrade the libgit2 bindings, and make releases of the libgit2 bindings, iceberg, and backport to Pharo 10 and Pharo 9.
TL;DR; So far (Friday ~17h Paris time) we managed to get everything up and running. A new VM is being released by our CI, all pull requests are issued and we should have everything integrated by tonight.
