Hello,
I'm porting Git to Lamp (Lamp ain't Mac POSIX), a Unix-like
environment which runs in classic Mac OS, much like Cygwin.
One of the complications I've run into is that Metrowerks C 2.4.1
(released in 2001) doesn't support some of the constructs git uses,
such as initializing an aggregate's member with the address of a
local variable, illustrated by the patch below:
diff --git a/builtin-commit.c b/builtin-commit.c
index 46e649c..8b98547 100644
--- a/builtin-commit.c
+++ b/builtin-commit.c

*index_file, const c
if (use_editor) {

- const char *env[2] = { index, NULL };
+ const char *env[2] = { NULL, NULL };

snprintf(index, sizeof(index), "GIT_INDEX_FILE=%s",
index_file);

env)) {

Is git intended to compile on a C89 compiler? In any case, if I
produce a complete set of patches, will they be applied?
