libgit2 is an independent implementation of Git as a library. Git and
libgit2 generally don't share code, although some code has been copied
from one to the other. It supports SSH using libssh2, although you
could probably patch it to use a different library.
That's the only general purpose C-compatible implementation of Git as a
library that I'm aware of.
