I'm not a regular cygwin user so I can't give you a direct answer, but perhaps you need to ask the right question (or at least explain your use-case). The point with git (or any other DVCS) is that it does not need to connect to anything until you want to publish your changes (i.e. git push) or incorporate changes someone else has published (i.e. git pull). These are the (main) cases where git will actually connect to a remote the rest of the time everything is happening locally on your local copy of the repository. -- 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
