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

161 # got-portable 0.85 (2023-03-08)
163 * Changes from got-0.85.
165 There's been a tonne of -portable-specific changes in this release which aim
166 to make portability easier across the supported systems. In particular,
167 there's been a lot of header cleanups, and now that -portable is using
168 config.h, this has allowed dependencies to be split out, so that ncurses is
169 only linked where required (tog). This should allow for multipacking where
172 There have also been some great improvements to regress (which is the test
173 suite) to remove GNU-specific wrappers for date(1), sed(1), ln(1).
175 There's too many commits to list here, but for the specifics, see the
176 differences between '0.84.1..0.85'.
178 Thanks in particular to Christian "naddy" Weisgerber for his help with this
179 work, and this -portable release.

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

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