The compiler shouldn't be a big issue, although git does expect something much better than K&R. Ie you need a *modern* compiler. (To be honest, the git sources do use some gcc extensions, but (a) I think they are all successfully conditional on gcc already (b) most modern vendor compilers support a lot of them anyway The Makefile is very GNU-make, though, so even if you don't have gcc, you should have GNU make, or you'd need to create your own makefile. And you'll need perl, and a basic set of development libraries: zlib and openssl are the minimum set, I think (apart from the basic C library with networking extensions). For full functionality, you'll need ssh, rsync, tcl/tk, curl, expat, SVN, CVS, cvsps, etc - obviously depending on what you're actually going to do.
