Superbeginner who can't figure out how to install brew or git
I have an early 2011 MacOS with High Sierra 10.13.6. I am attempting to learn from The Odin Project. I have installed XCode and have an account. I went to this link: https://github.com/mistydemeo/tigerbrew to download TigerBrew, thinking my old computer would support it. I used this link as instructed: https://raw.github.com/mistydemeo/tigerbrew/go/install

Install Ruby on Mac without Homebrew?
pkgsrc also runs on other platforms, like NetBSD and illumos, so it has a better chance to work on old versions of macOS. Around 2018, I put pkgsrc on an old PowerPC Mac running the obsolete Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, and built a few packages. (I didn't use Joyent's Intel packages, and I didn't know the PowerPC packages at http://sevan.mit.edu/. I also didn't know Tigerbrew.)
