The easiest way in my humble opinion would be to install a script like
this into /mingw/bin/:
-- snip --
#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in
--vernum)
version="$(curl -V)" || exit
version="$(echo "${version%% (*)*}" | tr . \ )"
eval printf "%02d%02d%02d" ${version#curl }
;;
--cflags)
;;
--libs)
echo -lcurl
;;
esac
-- snap --
That way, upstream Git does not have anything to change (and we avoid
discussing five versions of essentially the same patch :-P).
Hmm?
Ciao,
Dscho
