New release of Git Glulx interpreter

Git 1.3.6 is now available. This is a small update that fixes two problems:

  • Direct threading now works for 64 bit builds. Direct threading is a compile-time option that usually increases the speed of the interpreter by something like 20%.
  • Fixed an issue with compiling with Visual C++.

The Windows build of Git is now built with Clang-cl in Visual Studio, which produces a small performance boost.

It is available from

Git 1.3.7 is now available. This adds support for the new opcodes that Zarf has added to version 3.1.3 of the Glulx specification: @hasundo, @discardundo and all the opcodes needed for double precision maths.

This update makes Git feature equivalent with Zarf’s recent Glulxe 0.6.0. You can get Git source and the Windows build from
