This is specified in the package's setup.py: https://github.com/gitpython-developers/gitdb/blob/master/setup.py#L23 Any package that needs to use gitdb will fail since 4.0.0 was added to the tree. Solution for now is to mask >=dev-python/smmap-4.0.0.
Can you try stripping the dep to see if it’s genuinely needed?
I do question whether it's really needed as well, this <4 was set about a year ago and "seem" like a just-in-case safety.
