Re: Git on MSys (or how to make it easy for Windows users to compile git)

Anyway, you can get a complete Development environment in 3 files
 (because one would be too large), and... oh well, just read what
is written on the website if you're really interested.

Great effort Johannes! The package work perfectly on XP. I'm trying
to get it to work under Wine, but it (Wine) is not playing nice
with me at the moment. (The whole system barfs of "Access Denied" 
and other things. Grrr)

Actually turns out that Wine doesn't like that the sound library is 
missing. So, installing libjack make it barf less..
Actually compiling in Wine now with your package, though _sooo_ much 
slower than on XP :-)

Yes, I know cross-compiling is faster. But if using this package would 
compile successfully on Linux too, then we only need to maintain one 
MinGW setup for compiling Git on both Windows and Linux. Worth a try 
at least.
