Re: Git-windows and git-svn?

Steffen Prohaska:

Right. The experience should be good if you use binmode.

Shouldn't it be possible to fix this by sprinkling the appropriate
number of "b"s in the parameters to fopen()? Or is it more complicated
than that?

But never use textmode. You'll not get an error right away. At first
git seems to work. But later it reports weird errors. The experience
is really bad. Don't do that.

I got errors almost right away when trying that (I need text mode to
interface with some other programs), so Cygwin-git is a no-go for me at
the moment. Of course, mixing msys-Git with Cygwin and ActiveState Perl
is also an interesting experience, to say the least :-)
