Problem with node 8 and old require-dir

[blacktemplar]

The requirement gulp-git uses require-dir 1.0

Since require-dir is broken with the new require from node 8 (this issue got fixed in require-dir 0.3.2) I get the following error:

node_modules/require-dir/index.js:93
            if (!require.extensions.hasOwnProperty(ext)) {
                                    ^

TypeError: require.extensions.hasOwnProperty is not a function
    at requireDir (node_modules/require-dir/index.js:93:37)
    at Object.<anonymous> (node_modules/gulp-git/index.js:4:18)

If we update to gulp-git ^2.0.0 we would solve this problem, but I am not sure if this introduces other compatibility problems.
