GIT client for Amiga (sgit - simplegit)

KONEY · 25 December 2017, 11:27

I'm trying to set up GIT to push my OctaMED ARexx scripts to a git repo for everybody to use. I'd like to do it straight from the Amiga so I need a git client.

So I stumbled upon SimpleGIT: https://github.com/sba1/simplegit

Quote:

simple git client based on libgit2 with AmigaOS being the major target operating system

Has anyone compiled and used it? This page claims to host the binaries https://sonumina.de/jenkins/job/sgit.amiga/344/ but I downloaded and they don't start on my Amiga with Vampire2 and ks 3.1 (not executable).

Any help? Thanks

Its OS4 only, the binary included is for PowerPC.

Thanks... how did you find this? there's no mention anywhere...

The included binary is for PowerPC:

sgit: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, PowerPC or cisco 4500, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped

ok so it can be compiled for 68k too, correct?

I didn't read through the code, but theres only build support for OS4 in it. Getting this to work on OS3 might be non-trivial.

Go ahead and try?

A bit out of my range but thanks

You might be better off telnetting into a Linux box. You would need a shared network drive. e.g. Samba or NFS.

Might be possible with the Windows 10 Bash too.

I would also like some GIT for all my precious code I'm going to write. Maybe scp to one of the Linux servers would be the best solution then.
