Hello everyone.  I am fairly new to AIX but I was wondering if anyone has successfully been able to install the GIT repository software compiled and installed on AIX 7.1.0.0?

I have been trying, but it seems to need a lot of dependencies and things that I cannot find or not sure where to get them.

If someone has, please let me know how/what you did to install it.

Thanks

Hi Bryan,

yes I have the git-2.1.3-1 rpm installed OK on AIX 7.1

You are correct, there are lots of pre-reqs (and pre-reqs of pre-reqs...)

I did this before the yum functionality for AIX became available, which should help in future rpm installs, and may help you here.

Failing that then although it's a pain, then your best bet is to download the pre-reqs manually from the IBM "AIX Toolbox for Linux Applications" site http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/power/software/aix/linux/toolbox/alpha.html

(which has recently been updated) and Michael Perlz's excellent site, http://www.perzl.org/aix/

There is a method to download all the pre-reqs for an rpm from this site, see this great article: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/blogs/aixpert/entry/open_source_bootstrap_on_aix_rpm_dependencies_from_hell_fixed?lang=en

Good luck

Matt

You will need to first install the YUM package for AIX.  Then you can use YUM to install the GIT package.

Hi Bryan,

Thanks to see your post.

I have installed GIT in my AIX box. Through putty I am able to do the following successfully.

1) git clone

2) git commit and all the git commands successfully.

But at the same time when I am using bamboo - continuous integration tool which is doing the same in automated way( git clone, git push , git commit ...) all the commands through bamboo instead of putty.

When I run I am getting like below error:

Hello.  I am not familiar with "bamboo" but it sounds like it needs the files for secure connection.  libcrypto is a package that is provided by OpenSSL.  Make sure that OpenSSL is installed.

I believe that you can install OpenSSL using the same yum repository that you used to install GIT.

Let me know if that works for you.

Apparently this only works if you don't use IDS LDAP, which I have installed everywhere.

Hi Bryan,

git and all its dependencies are available at AIX toolbox " http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/power/software/aix/linux/toolbox/alpha.html".

For ease of use we have also made YUM available for AIX.

With YUM you need not to worry about the dependencies of any open source tool available on AIX toolbox it will automatically resolve the dependencies and install them for you.

I have posted about YUM for AIX toolbox on the AIX and AIX Open Source forum. Please have a look at the post and

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/topic?id=7b40a6b0-35cc-4deb-87fe-72824fbd3170&ps=25

We have an AIX open source forum for toolbox and open source software related topics.
