I can send you a binary to try if you'd like. It would be compiled on AIX 5.3 but I have to jump through hoops on several non-identically set-up servers here, so one might work for you. # ldd /usr/local/bin/git /usr/local/bin/git needs: /usr/lib/libc.a(shr.o) /usr/lib/libz.a(libz.so.1) /usr/lib/libiconv.a(shr4.o) /unix /usr/lib/libcrypt.a(shr.o) # ar -t /usr/lib/libz.a libz.so.1 shr.o Alternatively I can send you what gets installed from zlib-devel.rpm [1] which you might be able to install in your account's home directory, and then ./configure --with-zlib=PATH ; gmake might work for you. > As far as I can see my only option for a private repo is using rsync over > ssh. > > ...

I don't think any git is going to get very far without zlib, as it won't understand (be able to verify) the object/pack format at all. I might be wrong about that though.
