pkgsrc/devel/git/DESCR

This package is a meta package, collecting the components that are
widely expected to be installed for the GIT distributed version
control suite, i.e., the tool itself, the man pages, and contrib scripts.

See git-base for a minimal installation of the command-line tools.
See git-gitk for the tk-based browser gitk, no longer included in the
git meta-package.
devel/git: Drop git-gitk from git metapakage As discussed at length on pkgsrc-users: A number of people believe that the git metapackage should contain all of what is in git's release tarball, and that people should read DESCR. A number of people believe that the package named git should contain less (not gitk), and sometimes even less than that. As a compromise where each group is merely grumbling a little, drop gitk from the metapackage, because it is a component that some are bothered by (because it depends on tk, tcl and X, mostly), and because it is easy for those that want it to install it separately. 2019-07-17 16:33:28 +02:00			`This package is a meta package, collecting the components that are`
