I'll try to get other terminals working like that one Marius suggested. Although msys/bash makes up for most of the annoyances I dislike the cmd-terminal to the point that it's a real issue for me [deep settled in my neuron configuration]. > > > > 3.

I notice that with your net installer (great job btw!), I get the msysgit.git reop under /.git and the mingw.git repo under /git/.git but there is no /git in /.gitignore. Is this overlap intended? Isn't this a case for submodules? //Torgil - 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
