Its actually been running for several hours now. Wow. That's a pleasant surprise that anything in git-svn works at all on cygwin. I was almost certain git-svn on Windows was a hopeless cause from other chatter I had heard on the mailing list. command_oneline() is used everywhere in that code, so I'm at a total loss as to why it would fail in one place. Can you put a the following lines right before where it was failing? print "GIT_CONFIG: $ENV{GIT_CONFIG} | GIT_DIR: $ENV{GIT_DIR}\n"; system('cat', "$ENV{GIT_DIR}/config"); And tell me what it outputs? -- Eric Wong - 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
