An import from the refit svn repository at https://refit.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/refit
rEFIt is an EFI boot menu and toolkit for Macs, originally built to handle dual-booting Windows and Linux on Intel Macs before Apple Silicon existed. It predates rEFInd, which forked from it and is the actively maintained successor. This repo is an SVN import from 2012 — it is a historical artifact, not a usable project.
The gptsync tool was genuinely useful for keeping MBR and GPT partition tables in sync on hybrid-boot Macs. The fsw (Filesystem Wrapper) abstraction layer — supporting ext2, ReiserFS, ISO9660 — is a clean design for EFI filesystem drivers. The libeg graphics library handled EFI's awkward UGA/GOP display protocol differences across hardware generations.
Last commit was 2012; Apple Silicon made the entire premise obsolete years ago. rEFInd has been the maintained fork since 2012 and has diverged completely — there is no reason to use this source. No build instructions that work on any current toolchain; the EDK II and gnu-efi build environments it targets have changed significantly. Two stars on a 14-year-old SVN import tells you everything about the audience.
