Then compile objective-git cd objective-git &.

Then prepare objective-git by running its bootstrap script: cd objective-git &.

After cloning it cd gitx and then recursively initialize all submodules: git submodule update -init -recursive.

Clone the repository locally: git clone.

To get GitX-dev to compile locally you need to:

node.js for building SyntaxHighlighter (not necessary unless you're updating SyntaxHighlighter itself.).

CMake with a working command-line compiling environment for building libgit2.

Homebrew and xctool for running Objective-Git’s bootstrap script.

Most development is done on OS X Mavericks, earlier host platforms may or may not work at all.

Very recent Xcode install, 5.1 release strongly recommended.

Gitx fork manual#

We consider GitX-dev to beĬlose to feature-complete, with very few workflows dependant on manual GitX (L), used day-to-day by our developers.

OS X Mountain Lion (10.8) support for new builds will be ending soon, probably around Q2 2015. Among the OS X features that Snow Leopard does not support is Objective-C ARC, which is now the only non-deprecated memory management system on OS X. The last build compatible with OS X Snow Leopard (10.6) is 0.14.81, from February 4th 2013. It also breaks in ways that cannot be reproduced on newer platforms, and so has been a disproportionate support load and a poor experience for users on this platform. Among the reasons that OS X 10.7 support has been dropped is that it does not fully support ARC, application sandboxing, and other modern programming features like XPC services. The last build compatible with OS X Lion (10.7) is, from July 27th 2014. Older binary archives (predating the GitHub releases system) are available on the GitHub project downloads page. Milestone releases are uploaded to the GitHub project releases page. GitX-dev uses the Sparkle framework for in-app updates so once you have version 0.11 (December 2011) or later, you can check for or update to new builds from the GitX menu at any time, or opt-in for automatic updates.
