Hi,
I had a try to see whether I could make GUB also produce a MinGW installer for Git.
You can download the result at
http://lilypond.org/mingit/mingit-1.4.9993-1.mingw.exe
the odd version number was because I was too lazy to write code to extract the version number from the repository automatically.
I don't actually have a windows copy, so it's basically untested. However, I did succeed in running rev-list in wine.
PS. I'd be interested in comments on using GUB from others. GUB is a cross-compiling build tool, probably best described as a "Poor Man's Conary". Once I have the boilerplate code committed, building this installer should amount to
darcs get http://lilypond.org/vc/gub.darcs/ gub cd gub make -f Makefile.mingit bootstrap mingw
(yes, GUB itself is still hosted in Darcs. Shoot me.)
