I'm installing http://msysgit.googlecode.com/files/Git-1.6.4-preview20090729.exe: I should have been more accurate. But each time I reported on this package, it was on the preview. > Now the question is if full or net. I believe it's preview, not full, not net.

I can see from the wiki the net installer is a 1.8MB download. ??? libcrypto and libssl *are* in the package preview... It's actually quite funny, but I guess I've seen it all on Windows: all the binaries are here with their libraries until the setup complains about core.autoCRLF. After this stage, git.exe gets deleted... And it's not a virus triggering this (I checked). I managed to quickly copy it before it got erased, and manually added it back after the setup completes. It works. I'll not try the full install; at least from my point of view, it's a regression on the *preview* package, which I'm using on a daily basis. > > As I said, would have been nice to be precise. > let me know if it's not yet clear enough: I'm tired too, almost 1am :) -- Christian -- http://detaolb.sourceforge.net/, a linux distribution for Qemu with Git inside ! -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
