Research direction
Start with the referenced libgit2 CMakeLists.txt properties and the linked MonoDevelop build_libgit2.sh script, then organize the Windows, Mac, and Linux build notes from the issue. Done means the documentation explains the required dependencies, platform-specific commands, output libraries, and the parameters needed for libgit2 to use libssh2.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Okay so, I'm going to lay down the docs over this issue so I don't lose them:
Windows:
We need cmake, zlib-1.2.8 package and libssh2 repo cloned.
Having these side-by-side, inside libssh2 directory:
cd path/to/libssh2_repo ; mkdir build ; cd build ;
cmake .. -DBUILD_TESTING=ON -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -DENABLE_ZLIB_COMPRESSION=ON -DZLIB_LIBRARY="....\zlib-1.2.8\lib\zdll.lib" -DZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR="....\zlib-1.2.8\include"
This will build libssh2 dll and .lib inside path/to/libssh2_repo/build/src/Debug
It will link against zlib and we'd have to use zlib-1.2.8/zlib1.dll file side-by-side with libssh2.dll and libgit2.dll
TODO: Update docs on what parameters we need to send libgit2 to pick up libssh2. We have to modify all these properties manually, so we set FOUND manually, and so do we set link and include directories.
Mac:
brew install libssh2
build cmake with DUSE_SSH
copy libssh2 to output directory and install_name_tool -id libssh2.dylib libssh2.dylib
Linux:
Magic script: https://github.com/mono/monodevelop/blob/master/main/src/addins/VersionControl/MonoDevelop.VersionControl.Git/build_libgit2.sh
