Interesting! https://ports.macports.org/port/git/details/ It looks
like the most recent build is from 2021
https://ports.macports.org/port/git/builds/?builder_name__name=10.5_ppc_legacy
.   https://ports.macports.org/port/git/stats/?days=365&days_ago=0
shows 10 total PowerPC downloads in the past year between versions
10.4, 10.5 and 10.6

I don't have the equipment or expertise to develop on macOS, so I'll
leave the API migration as a potential future #leftoverbits

Reading the keychain docs more carefully, the new API only supports a
fixed set of attribute keys such as 'kSecAttrComment', so discount my
original "further motivation"
