Feature description
I installed git-credential-manager as a dotnet tool in Ubuntu 22.04, but I cannot use it because it depends on .NET 7, which I do not have installed since it's out of support:
$ uname -a
Linux chayotebox 6.8.0-45-generic #45~22.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Sep 11 15:25:05 UTC 2 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ dotnet --list-sdks
6.0.425 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
8.0.402 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
$ dotnet tool install -g git-credential-manager
You can invoke the tool using the following command: git-credential-manager
Tool 'git-credential-manager' (version '2.4.1') was successfully installed.
$ git-credential-manager configure
You must install or update .NET to run this application.
App: /home/carlos/.dotnet/tools/git-credential-manager
Architecture: x64
Framework: 'Microsoft.NETCore.App', version '7.0.13' (x64)
.NET location: /usr/lib/dotnet
The following frameworks were found:
6.0.33 at [/usr/lib/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App]

To install missing framework, download:

If dotnet tool installed the git-credential-manager's DLL as well, I would've been able to workaround this by running dotnet git-credential-manager.dll --roll-forward but dotnet tool only installed the binary.

GCM 2.6 which targets .NET 8 has just been released on nuget.org.
