I attached what I did with Wine until now. You probably only need patch 2 but if you are going to test gitbox, you'll need patch 1 as well. It is based on wine-0.9.41-313-gd0b21ab. With these patches, I can run git tests under Wine. Ah, and if you want to run tests under Wine, beware that setting TZ in scripts has no effect. You have to set TZ before running wine. > > Ciao, > Dscho > > -- Duy
