The other option is to write an autoconf > test to discover the proper path. 'sort' (and 'find' for that matter) is not only used by the build scripts, but also by some shell scripts of the toolset. Hence, the path would have to be modified for each 'git foo' invocation, IOW, by git.exe itself. I don't like this solution. The alternative, to force the user to put his $MSYSDIR/bin before $WINNT (which would require admin rights, btw, because the system's PATH must be modified), I like even less. I've to think a bit more about this. -- 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
