## Historique du projet et usages

Git, packaged by Homebrew as `git-if`, is an interpreter for the Glulx virtual machine used by interactive-fiction games. The package name avoids confusion with the Git version-control system.

### Historique du projet

IF Archive identifies the interpreter as Iain Merrick's Git and describes it as optimized for speed. Archived binaries show releases for PocketPC, MS-DOS, Windows console mode, and source distributions, while the maintained GitHub repository describes the code as originally written by Merrick and later maintained by David Kinder.

### Historique d'adoption

Git's adoption is tied to the Glulx ecosystem rather than general-purpose developer tooling. IFWiki lists it as a Glulx interpreter used by projects such as Gargoyle, Windows Git, and other interactive-fiction front ends, giving it a role as a fast interpreter core for playable story files.

### Modes d'utilisation

Practitioners use Git by building it with a Glk library, which provides the user interface layer. The GitHub README notes that Windows Glk support is included for Windows builds, while Unix-style builds depend on an appropriate Glk implementation.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

The package is a naming oddity: `git-if` installs software named Git that is unrelated to source control. It is useful to package catalogs because it preserves an interactive-fiction interpreter without colliding with the ubiquitous `git` command.

### Chronologie

- 2004: IF Archive records PocketPC and MS-DOS builds for early 1.0.x releases.
- 2010: DavidKinder/Git repository created on GitHub.
- 2017: IF Archive records source and Windows console builds for Git 1.3.5.
- 2023: IF Archive records source code for Git 1.3.8.
- 2025: IF Archive records a Windows binary of Git 1.3.8 using Windows Glk.

### Related projects

- Git belongs to the Glulx interpreter family alongside Glulxe and front ends such as Gargoyle. It also depends on the Glk interface layer, with Windows Glk serving the Windows build.
