Previously, git-crypt claimed to support Git as old as 1.6.0 (albeit with degraded operation). However, this has not been true for some time, since Git 1.6.0 does not support the --porcelain option to `git status`. Since Git 1.7.2 was the first version of Git to support filters with `git blame`, was released almost five years ago (in July 2010), and is even in Debian Squeeze, it seems like a good minimum version to require.

|
|
|

|
BUILDING GIT-CRYPT
|
|
|
|
The Makefile is tailored for g++, but should work with other compilers.
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ cp git-crypt /usr/local/bin/
|
|
|
|
It doesn't matter where you install the git-crypt binary - choose wherever
|
|
is most convenient for you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
BUILDING A DEBIAN PACKAGE
|
|
|
|
Debian packaging can be found in the 'debian' branch of the project
|
|
Git repository. The package is built using git-buildpackage as follows:
|
|
|
|
$ git checkout debian
|
|
$ git-buildpackage -uc -us
|
|
|
|
|
|
INSTALLING ON MAC OS X
|
|
|
|
Using the brew package manager, simply run:
|
|
|
|
$ brew install git-crypt
|
|
|
|
|
|
EXPERIMENTAL WINDOWS SUPPORT
|
|
|
|
git-crypt should build on Windows with MinGW, although the build system
|
|
is not yet finalized so you will need to pass your own CXX, CXXFLAGS, and
|
|
LDFLAGS variables to make. Additionally, Windows support is less tested
|
|
and does not currently create key files with restrictive permissions,
|
|
making it unsuitable for use on a multi-user system. Windows support
|
|
will mature in a future version of git-crypt. Bug reports and patches
|
|
are most welcome!
