#gameoftrees #macOS #got

Hi all.

Just putting the feelers out as I'd love to know how many folks are using got on MacOs.

@teajaygrey@rap.social does an amazing job every time I make a release of gameoftrees portable, but I could do with knowing how many of you are using it.

I made a change in the 0.123 release to fix socket handling for services such as gotwebd, which is good, but it's telling that it's taken this long, so I wonder how many users we have.

Let me know -- you can always email me at: thomas.adam22@gmail.com

Please boost this as much as possible, I'd appreciate it.

#gameoftrees #got

I've released got-portable 0.123

This is in-line with got(1):

https://gameoftrees.org/releases/changes.html

There is one addition in this -portable release but is out-of-band with got(1) and it's a fix for chroot(1) handling in gotwebd which was not being passed to children of gotwebd. This will be in got-0.124 when that releases.

On MacOS, socket handling has been reworked to use fcntl() for a few SOCKET_* flags otherwise supported on other platforms.

Also -portable-specific is a new got-portable(7) man page:

https://gameoftrees.org/got-portable.7.html

Which aims to collate useful information for users of got(1) on non-OpenBSD platforms.

As usual, the changelog for -portable is here:

Usual mirror (xteddy) has been updated.

Any questions please shout at me!
