You can get some releases from: http://www.opensource.apple.com/tarballs/Git/ and at least view the diff against stock git. But they do not seem to have updated that in some time (the latest release is Apple Git-48, based off of v1.8.5.2). It would be nice if they kept that up to date (actually not just nice, but required by the GPL[1]). It would be nicer still if they actually published their patches with real commit messages, or better yet actually engaged with upstream to work on fixes or enhancements. This isn't strictly relevant to the discussion at hand, but in case any Apple Git folks do see this, perhaps it will serve as a gentle nudge. -Peff [1] By the GPL, they don't strictly need to publish the source; they just have to make an offer to provide it on request. But given the existence of opensource.apple.com, I think their strategy is to just publish everything, and they have simply let updating that site fall behind the binaries they are pushing. Or maybe they have switched to an alternate site that I don't know about. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
