Thomas Klausner did attempt to port Got to NetBSD some time ago.
This didn't get very far, but I wanted to mention it regardless in
case this information helps you.

Trivial patches like this are fine as long as they don't break the
OpenBSD build. Patches that can't trivially be applied to OpenBSD should
stay e.g. in pkgsrc for now. We can pick them up there once portable
releases become a priority. There are still many other things to work
out before integrating support for other operating systems.
