Well I have heard now a few times of this config.mak file and when I
extract the source tarball I see :

$ ls -lap config*
-rw-r--r--   1 dclarke  adbs       44502 Jul 30 22:10 config.c
-rw-r--r--   1 dclarke  adbs         540 Jul 30 22:10 config.mak.in
-rw-r--r--   1 dclarke  adbs       15447 Jul 30 22:10 config.mak.uname
-rwxr-x---   1 dclarke  adbs      217698 Jul 30 22:10 configure
-rw-r--r--   1 dclarke  adbs       32144 Jul 30 22:10 configure.ac


So I guess I have to create a config.mak file from somewhere.

>From the INSTALL file I see that most of these variables are in the

had better crack that open and see what I need to change in there.
Most likely CFLAGS and a way to locate OpenSSL libs etc but who knows.

The problem is that this is not Linux and not GNU ld and therefore :

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01/817-1984/6mhm7pl1l/index.html

So if I want to ensure that things like ELF headers contain the correct
stuff to locate libraries ( never ever use LD_LIBRARY_PATH as it is
the kiss of death ) then I need things like LD_OPTIONS and others.

So I will work through this from the Makefile provided and see if I
can get the CFLAGS that I want as well as other env vars.

I should try that on Solaris once to see what happens.  Make popcorn.

$ make

Instant fail.

Let's try GNU make :

$ gmake
GIT_VERSION = 2.0.4
    * new build flags
    CC credential-store.o
cc: -W option with unknown program all
gmake: *** [credential-store.o] Error 1
$

More instant fail.

Let's keep trying ...

Sounds good ... let's see :

gmake CFLAGS="$CFLAGS" LDFLAGS="$LD_OPTIONS"
.
.
.  good things seem to happen ...
.
    LINK git-credential-store

So this is not Linux and so a pile of fiddling is required. Welcome to
the world of Oracle Solaris where nothing from the Linux world ever
"just works".  It looks like somewhere along the line the idea of
linking
with -liconv or perhaps -lintl was lost.  Not sure yet.

For now I want to keep chugging along to see if I can get a default
no-hack
build and then go back and start over with things in the Makefile to see
if I can get the whole process to make the binaries that I want with
the required bits in the ELF headers and correctly NEEDed libs etc.
