Hi all,
"Read first, then ask" :)
My error was, that I have used Windows PowerShell, but the instruction
in the README says "Open a Dos-Box with admin rights".
So WindowsKey+R.
Enter cmd and finish with Ctrl+Shift+Enter to get admin rights.
You are now in C:\Windows\System32>
Change to the specified folder .git/hooks
And then run the specified command
FOR /F " usebackq " %i IN (`dir /b ..\..\.git-hooks`) DO del /as /f %i &
del %i & mklink %i ..\..\.git-hooks\%i
This replaces each of the four files commit-msg, post-merge, pre-commit
and README with something of size 0 KB, that has Type .symlink
Before using the above, I had followed the first part of the
instructions in README and run command cd .git/hooks && ln -s
../../.git-hooks/* ./
Now there are no error messages with using make.
For what it's worth, with the WSL instruction one is supposed to use the
Git Bash terminal as a regular user and there at least the usual
cd .git/hooks && ln -s ../../.git-hooks/* ./
command should work.
