Git is a fast version control system originally designed for the Linux kernel and written by Linus Torvalds.
Need git on AIX or HP-UX? Here's how:
HP-UX PA-RISC 2.0:
First, you're going to need a compiler (GCC), GNU make (gmake) and GNU coreutils (install). swinstall the dependency repositories first:
coreutils 6.9 coreutils
gcc 4.2.3 gcc
libgcc 4.2.3 libgcc
libiconv 1.12 libiconv
make 3.81 make
perl 5.8.8 perl
zlib 1.2.3 zlib
Untar the package and start building:
$ ./configure --with-iconv=/usr/local/bin
Edit the Makfile:
CC = gcc
AR = ar
RM = rm -f
TAR = tar
FIND = find
INSTALL = /usr/local/coreutils/bin/install
# sudo gmake NEEDS_LIBICONV=1 NO_TCLTK=1 install prefix=/usr/local
$ which git
/usr/local/bin/git
$ uname -sr
HP-UX B.11.11
$ git --version
git version 1.5.4.4
Building GIT on AIX 5.3 POWERPC:
Install dependencies and GCC, gmake, GNU coreutils (install), etc:
gcc-4.0.0-1 libgcc-4.0.0-1 libstdc++-4.0.0-1 libstdc++-devel-4.0.0-1 gcc-c++-4.0.0-1 readline-4.3-2 readline-devel-4.3-2 zlib-1.2.3-3 zlib-devel-1.2.3-3 make-3.80-1 unzip-5.51-1 flex-2.5.4a-6 bison-1.875-3 popt-1.7-2 gettext-0.10.40-6 expect-5.42.1-3 tcl-8.4.7-3 tk-8.4.7-3 coreutils-5.2.1-2
$ ./configure
vi Makefile:
CC = /opt/freeware/bin/gcc
AR = ar
RM = rm -f
TAR = /opt/freeware/bin/tar
FIND = find
INSTALL = /usr/linux/bin/install
RPMBUILD = rpmbuild
TCL_PATH = /opt/freeware/bin/tclsh
TCLTK_PATH = /opt/freeware/bin/wish
# gmake NO_MSGFMT=1 install prefix=/opt/freeware
$ uname -a
AIX aix 3 5 004518FC4C00
$ which git
/opt/freeware/bin/git
$ git --version
git version 1.5.4.4
Solaris 10:
Solaris 10 comes with gcc, gmake and GNU tools in /usr/sfw/bin, but you'll need ginstall from GNU coreutils (you can get it from Solaris Freeware).
$ ./configure
Edit the Makefile - set the path to "ar", "gcc" and GNU "install".
CC = /usr/sfw/bin/gcc
AR = /usr/ccs/bin/ar
RM = rm -f
TAR = tar
FIND = find
INSTALL = /opt/sfw/bin/install
Look for ifeq ($(uname_S),SunOS) and set INSTALL to /opt/sfw/bin/install also.
# gmake NO_TCLTK=1 NO_CURL=1 install prefix=/opt/sfw
