Myself and many others have excellent luck with the cygwin version.
But the reasoning behind wanting this isn't so much for the developer
that is creating the patch as it is for the person receiving it. Most
of the projects I work on use tortoise to apply the patches and don't
typically have patch.exe
If something like this was to be accepted and become part of standard
git is there a requirement that it be written in perl or is some other
scripting language fine?
Thanks
