Was it ? 25d90d1cb merged this commit: 1cadad6f6 (junio/tb/use-common-win32-pathfuncs-on-cygwin) And, if I read that correctly, 1cadad6f6 does not change anything for MSVC. And the problem with the missing/wrong path resolution was there before 1cadad6f6 and after 1cadad6f6. >From that point of view, the patch looks correct, but: The other question: In config.mak.uname we need to add a line compat/win32/path-utils.o for the Windows build. In the git-for windows codebase I see COMPAT_OBJS +=compat/win32/path-utils 3 times: For Cygwin, MINGW and Windows. In git.git only for Cygwin and MINGW.
