git-compat-util.h: drop the `PRIuMAX` and other fallback definitions Git's code base already seems to be using `PRIdMAX` without any such fallback definition for quite a while (75459410edd (json_writer: new routines to create JSON data, 2018-07-13), to be precise, and the first Git version to include that commit was v2.19.0). Having a fallback definition only for `PRIuMAX` is a bit inconsistent. We do sometimes get portability reports more than a year after the problem was introduced. This one should be fairly safe. PRIuMAX is in C99 (for that matter, SCNuMAX, PRIu32 and others also are), and we've been picking up other C99-isms without complaint. The PRIuMAX fallback definition was originally added in 3efb1f343a (Check for PRIuMAX rather than NO_C99_FORMAT in fast-import.c., 2007-02-20). But it was replacing a construct that was introduced in an even earlier commit, 579d1fbfaf (Add NO_C99_FORMAT to support older compilers., 2006-07-30), which talks about gcc 2.95. That's pretty ancient at this point.

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.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt 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.txt (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). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://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):
