[PATCH 0/2] mingw: fix git clone \\server\share

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Due to quirks in the MSYS2 runtime intended to help interpret a command-line
as if it had been pre-processed by a shell, the backslashes would be
misinterpreted as if they were escape characters. This showed most
prominently when trying to clone from a network share, as the path would
start with two backslashes.

These patches have been carried in Git for Windows for more than
one-and-a-half years (in a slightly different, less readable form), and it
is time to bring them home.

Johannes Schindelin (2):
  mingw (t5580): document bug when cloning from backslashed UNC paths
  mingw: special-case arguments to `sh`
