[snipped patch]

commit f34196da7b55cbf9f2651e095b6559430aff0baf (make-static: master, 11-09-2011)
in the next branch (at repo.or.cz), but *not* this patch, breaks the build on
cygwin.

The failure is caused by this part of the commit:

    diff --git a/environment.c b/environment.c
    index e96edcf..478f2afa 100644
    --- a/environment.c
    +++ b/environment.c
    @@ -147,11 +147,6 @@ int is_bare_repository(void)
            return is_bare_repository_cfg && !get_git_work_tree();
     }
    
    -int have_git_dir(void)
    -{
    -       return !!git_dir;
    -}
    -
     const char *get_git_dir(void)
     {
            if (!git_dir)

since have_git_dir() is used in compat/cygwin.c (line 117).
