Thanks. I took a peek at the mkfifo call here. It is used to make sure the daemon has started before we run the tests which depend on it. I suspect we could do something with a regular pipe, but the code would be rather tricky. Simply skipping the daemon tests is a reasonable compromise until somebody feels like trying to make it work without a fifo. -Peff -- -- *** Please reply-to-all at all times *** *** (do not pretend to know who is subscribed and who is not) *** *** Please avoid top-posting. *** The msysGit Wiki is here: https://github.com/msysgit/msysgit/wiki - Github accounts are free.
