Subject: Can I use CRoaring library in Git?

Hello,

I need the CRoaring[1] library to use roaring bitmaps. But it has
Apache license v2 which is not compatible with GPLv2[2].

Is there a way to use the CRoaring library in Git? Taylor told me that
contrib/persistent-https tree is also licensed under Apache License
version 2.
