Running `make all` in `contrib/persistent-https` results in a
failure on Go 1.7 and above.
Specifically, the error is:
go build -o git-remote-persistent-https \
-ldflags "-X main._BUILD_EMBED_LABEL
1468613136"
# _/Users/parkr/github/git/contrib/persistent-https
/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.7rc1/libexec/pkg/tool/darwin_amd64/link: -X
flag requires argument of the form importpath.name=value
make: *** [git-remote-persistent-https] Error 2
This `name=value` syntax for the -X flag was introduced in Go v1.5
(released Aug 19, 2015):

- commit: https://github.com/golang/go/commit/

In Go v1.7, support for the old syntax was removed:
