Installation Installation
------------ ------------
The fastest way to get started is to download a [binary][1] for your platform Manual Installation
and unarchive it with: -------------------
First, you need to install `libgit2`, preferably using your package manager of
choice.
If you get version `1.5`, jump to the compilation step below. If not, you first
need to change the version used in the code. Using the table on the
[libgit2](https://github.com/libgit2/git2go#which-go-version-to-use)
repository, figure out which version you need. Then, replace the `v34` in the
`go.mod` file and in all files under the `splitter/` directory. Run `go mod tidy`.
Then, compile `splitsh-lite`:
```bash ```bash
sudo tar -zxpf lite_linux_amd64.tar.gz --directory /usr/local/bin/ go build -o splitsh-lite github.com/splitsh/lite
``` ```
You can also [install it manually](#manual-installation). If everything goes fine, a `splitsh-lite` binary should be available in the
current directory.
If you get errors about an incompatible `libgit2` library, try exporting the
needed flags, e.g.
```bash
export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/opt/libgit2@1.5/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/opt/libgit2@1.5/include"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/libgit2@1.5/lib/pkgconfig"
```
