The POSIX emulation in MSYS (or bash, dunno) always converts to POSIX style: > bash -c "cd c:/temp; PWD=$(pwd -W); echo $PWD; cd $PWD; pwd; echo $PWD" c:/temp /c/temp /c/temp That is, even if I use Windows style path to chdir around, the result is POSIX style. > The other direction of changing the Windows port of git to produce /c/dir > style paths would probably not work, as it would involve ripping out the > path mangling feature of bash in MSYS, which is done for some reason, I > presume. Doing that is certainly not something that I would be prepared to do just to make the bash prompt work right ;-) And the added maintainance burden incurred by the status quo is certainly much cheaper than yet another fork of MSYS and/or bash. -- Hannes -- 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
