Install MSYS, e.g. MSYS-1.0.11-2004.04.30-1.exe You will also want a ssh and perl, e.g. from msysDTK-1.0.1.exe and MinGW's tcl/tk from tcltk-8.4.1-1.exe Also, git-am seems to require bash 3.1, e.g. from bash-3.1-MSYS-1.0.11-snapshot.tar.bz2 -- 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
