I didn't wire Windows up yet, so this is a known omission. It's not handled in the Makefile yet, either. My plan here was to tackle Windows support as the immediate next step once this patch series lands. Would that be fine with you?
* Using the name "git" for the crate is problematic because both Make and Meson already produce libgit.a which is different from the libgit.a that cargo is producing. Change the name in Cargo.toml from "git" to "gitcore".
I wasn't quite happy with the "git" name anyway, so I'll happily take "gitcore" instead. Thanks! Patrick
