Even if it installs ok under Wine, git may not work properly because a bug in dup2() not duplicating to 0-2 and some othersthat I think only affect tests. So get XP if you can or prepare to fix Wine along the way.Yeah, I wasn't going to use it under Wine actually. Just wanted to see if I could get it building there, to ease automated packaging later. However, I've given up on it, due to a perl issue, which might be caused by the issue you describe.You could cross-compile it. You'll need a cross toolchain, zlib stuff and a good config.mak (I can send you one if you have trouble with it).
I would definitely be interested in your config.mak file! Thanks! -- .marius
