Python 3.12.3: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\s'

I'm getting the following trace while trying to use GitPython on Python 3.12.3:

/home/airflow/.local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/git/config.py:123: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\s'
  re_comment = re.compile('^\s*[#;]')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/airflow/.local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/git/__init__.py", line 33, in <module>
    from git.config import GitConfigParser
  File "/home/airflow/.local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/git/config.py", line 186
    except IOError,e:
           ^^^^^^^^^

I believe this is due to the change in Python 3.12: https://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.12.html#other-language-changes

My bad... I was using a very old version in my requirements file.
