Yuck. I'm considering applying the following. It works ok on Mac OS X where the bug isn't triggered anyway. ;-) I won't be able to test on Cygwin until tomorrow.
-->8-- git-gui: Correctly install to /usr/bin on Cygwin
Mark Levedahl <mlevedahl@gmail.com> noted that installation on Cygwin to /usr/bin can cause problems with the automatic guessing of our library location. The problem is that installation to /usr/bin means we actually have:
/usr/bin = c:\cygwin\bin /usr/share = c:\cygwin\usr\share
So git-gui guesses that its library should be found within the c:\cygwin\share directory, as that is where it should be relative to the script itself in c:\cygwin\bin.
In this case we have to use `cygpath` during installation to find out what the mapping is from the UNIX path we are seeing in GNU make, to the Windows path we will actually see in our Tcl/Tk process. After that mapping has been performed we can then test to see if our share directory can be found by relative location, or if we need to encode the absolute location.
