Well, it is not going to be a compile and go.
It never occurred to me it could be. Aside from fork(), there are
several library dependencies, none of which should be too awful by
itself, but it is likely to be work to get them built. Note that
porting git to VMS may cause a leadership crisis in the Linux
community :-) :

Good, when it is done, you know where to cross post the announcement.
%LINK-E-NUDFSYMS, 10 undefined symbols:
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, SHA1_Final
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, SHA1_Init
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, SHA1_Update
Hmm. Are those from libssh? I'm not sure how or whether the ssh
capabilities in recent versions of TCP/IP Services expose those APIs,
so it might involve getting OpenSSH or somethng.
The problem is that the HP OpenSSH only has uppercase symbols in the
transfer vectors.
It will not be hard to track these down and add #define macros in
gnv$*.c_first files for those modules.
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, fnmatch
Just a matter of grabbing a GPL V2 fnmatch and adding it in. I seem to
remember one sitting in glib, which I already have ported.
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, fork
Yep, find and see if can be replaced with vfork/exec stuff.
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, regcomp
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, regerror
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, regexec
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, regfree
%LINK-I-UDFSYM, sync
Most of this has to do with regular expression matching; I'd guess
the PCRE library is what we need.
Actually except for sync(), I think they are in a module regex.c which
seems to sit in gnu distribution in source form. There are several
version in the GNV source. The .h file for that module was used in the
build.
Not sure about the sync(), have to look that up.
Of more troubling, is that the HP C compiler is diagnosing some where
around 1/2 dozen cases of pointers that are being specifically loaded
with uninitialized values. That is not a VMS specific issue.
So it really is not in too bad of shape.
I wonder how much functionality is missing with out libcurl?
