Description

I use the powerlevel10k theme of zsh with Oh My Zsh on "FreeBSD rpi-b 13.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 13.3-RELEASE releng/13.3-n257428-80d2b634ddf0 RPI-B arm"

But it reports an error every time starts:
[ERROR]: gitstatus failed to initialize.

There is no prebuilt gitstatusd for freebsd arm.

See: https://github.com/romkatv/gitstatus#compiling

Do I have to compile gitstatus from source code? I have read the compilation instructions. It seems I have to use the GCC compiler...... So, is there an easier way?

Research direction

Begin with the compilation instructions linked in the issue and the reported FreeBSD 13.3 ARM environment. Determine whether the requested outcome is a prebuilt gitstatusd or an easier source-build path; done means gitstatus initializes without the error on FreeBSD ARM and the chosen path is documented.
