Re: Git commit path vs rebase path

Actually, the above is stated rather poorly.  The path that ends up in

Excellent point.

I ran some test and this is what I came up with

# VI
/cygdrive/c/test/hello.sh # works
C:\test\hello.sh # works
C:/test/hello/sh # works

# NOTEPAD
/cygdrive/c/test/hello.sh # does not work
C:\test\hello.sh # works
C:/test/hello.sh # works

so the best compromise would be "C:/test/hello.sh" which can be created with

diff --git a/git-sh-setup.sh b/git-sh-setup.sh
index 7b3ae75..ba198d2 100644
