84 This release also introduces 'gotd', which is got's server implementation. By
85 extension, other tools are also introduced to work with gotd, and they are:
91 For more information about gotd, see gotd(8), as well as the above command man
92 pages where necessary. Note that gotd's portable implementation uses chroot()
93 to ensure some separation; this still requires the main gotd binary to run as
96 To enable gotd and the corresponding other tools which work with it, you must
97 pass the '--enable-gotd' ./configure flag.
99 Further installation instructions can be found in the README.portable file in
100 the root directory of the project.

139 * Changes from got-0.85.
141 There's been a tonne of -portable-specific changes in this release which aim
142 to make portability easier across the supported systems. In particular,
143 there's been a lot of header cleanups, and now that -portable is using
144 config.h, this has allowed dependencies to be split out, so that ncurses is
145 only linked where required (tog). This should allow for multipacking where
148 There have also been some great improvements to regress (which is the test
149 suite) to remove GNU-specific wrappers for date(1), sed(1), ln(1).
151 There's too many commits to list here, but for the specifics, see the
152 differences between '0.84.1..0.85'.
154 Thanks in particular to Christian "naddy" Weisgerber for his help with this
155 work, and this -portable release.

203 # got-portable 0.75.1 (2022-09-13)
205 This is a bug-fix -portable release to address the following:
207 * portable: macos: look for GNU Bison in more places, based on whether brew or
208 MacPorts is in use, and failing to find Bison that way, look in a few
209 hard-coded but likely locations.
210 * portable: remove compat sys/queue.h -- this now makes libbsd a core

216 * portable: improve <sys/queue.h> inclusion

245 # got-portable 0.69 (2022-04-24)
