When Rust is enabled, the git-credential-osxkeychain helper depends on
Rust symbols compiled into $(RUST_LIB). While commit 522ea8ef7d
("osxkeychain: fix build with Rust") updated the linker command line to
use $(LIBS), it omitted $(RUST_LIB) from the target prerequisite list.
Without this prerequisite, running a parallel build ("make -j") from a
clean working tree can fail because Make does not know to invoke Cargo
to build libgitcore.a before linking git-credential-osxkeychain.
Note that we depend explicitly on $(LIB_FILE) and $(RUST_LIB) rather
than $(GITLIBS). Unlike standard Git builtins and programs like scalar
(which define cmd_main() and rely on common-main.o to supply main()),
git-credential-osxkeychain.c defines its own standalone int main().
If $(GITLIBS) were used, $(filter %.o,$^) in the link recipe would
match both git-credential-osxkeychain.o and common-main.o, causing a
duplicate symbol linking error for _main on macOS.
Additionally, wrap the definitions of $(RUST_LIB) and the "rust" build
target in "ifndef NO_RUST". This ensures that when NO_RUST=1 is
specified, $(RUST_LIB) evaluates to empty, making the Rust dependency a
clean no-op without needing intermediate variables.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.adoc to get started, then see
Documentation/giteveryday.adoc for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-<commandname>.adoc for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the
documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.adoc
(man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is
installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).
Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message
string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md
(a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).
To subscribe to the list, send an email to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
