What is Aho?

A Git implementation in AWK.

But why?

Modern AWK is capable of a lot more than one-liners. This is a toy project to explore some of the internals of Git and newer features of GNU AWK.

It's not intended to be useful for anything other than entertainment and education.

Quickstart

You'll need gawk >= 5.0, and I currently use pigz for zlib compression. Everything else should be provided by GNU coreutils. In other words, this should run on most linuxes, not so much on BSDs/Mac.
