Instead of the above patch to path.c, change the line before the precontext with s/getenv("HOME")/get_HOME()/ Or even lower, inside mingw_getenv() and catch variables that deal with paths (not just HOME but PATH, TMP, TMPDIR, etc.) > } else { > struct passwd *pw = getpw_str(username, username_len); > if (!pw) -- 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
